At the memorial, Laura loudly blames Doc Baker for her baby's death and insists that he leave the graveside service.

Season 7, Episodes 1 and 2 “Laura Ingalls Wilder”
In reality, however, the southern Minnesota landscape where the show is supposed to take place includes no tall mountains. How my mom named me Laura after Laura Ingalls Wilder, about the floral long dress and the school bag. That I want to also make changes to be better, that I worry too much about my wrinkles. And I really wanted to find a place where I could just relax and enjoy my life,” she says. "Little House" debuted alongside several other shows in 1974, including “Chico and the Man” and “The Rockford Files." Yet it is one of the few shows that could draw a crowd today, 50 years later, with a character women still love.

Season 4 (1977–
They manage to convince him that Albert did not make Sylvia pregnant, but Sylvia has run off. As they search for her, the mystery rapist (revealed to be Hartwig) attacks both Sylvia and Albert, then is shot down by Mr. Webb. During the confrontation, Sylvia suffers a bad fall, and she later dies in the arms of a distraught, heartbroken Albert.
Her sons and stepchildren are in their 20s and 30s, and she has nine grandchildren. With friend Nicole Haase, she co-founded Modern Prairie, a lifestyle brand that sells prairie inspired clothes (even bonnets), pie carriers and beautiful quilts and linens. The reaction of bigoted Mrs. Oleson (Katherine MacGregor) is a treat when Charles tells her that Solomon is his son from a previous marriage….Every few minutes your heart is pulled in another direction. A devastating tornado hits Walnut Grove, destroying the Ingalls’ crops and farm.
Season 6 (1979–
In contrast, Laura does not truly come to grips with Albert's possible imminent death until late in the story, and wishes that he rest in bed rather than exhaust himself. Albert soon falls in love with a long-time friend called Michele Pierson, and Charles starts a cooperative with the local farmers in order to compete with the large farms. Finally, Albert, Laura, Michele, Miss Plum and the local school children make their annual climb to 'the keepsake tree' at the top of Harper's Bluff, where Laura and Albert place their own keepsake in the box hidden there. The movie ends with Miss Plum and the children joining hands in a circle around Laura and Albert, who join their own hands and raise them high, both in celebration and as a symbol of their bond. The family is on the move again in the next book in the series, On the Banks of Plum Creek.
The Long Winter
Fans were left shocked by Jason's transformation and replied to the latest photo which is going viral on X, formerly Twitter. That after a divorce or even just being an empty nester, they wonder where that spunky girl is. It was also a time when she started accepting that growing older was just part of life, not something to fight. And that maybe being defined by strangers as the role you played for a very specific period of your life isn’t so bad. She acted in the 1983 TV movie “Choices of the Heart,” voiced Batgirl, played Ma in the traveling musical adaptation of “Little House” and was president of the Screen Actors Guild. She competed on ABC's “Dancing with the Stars” in 2012, and tried so hard to continue to look like she thought she should.
The girls are left alone, and they spend their days and nights boarding and feeding all the pioneers passing through. They charge 25 cents for dinner and boarding, starting a savings account toward sending Mary to the School for the Blind in Vinton, Iowa, which Mary begins to attend later in the series. As winter approaches and the railroad workers head back East, the Ingallses wonder where they might stay for the winter. As luck would have it, the county surveyor needs a house sitter while he is East for the winter, and Pa signs up. It is a winter of luxury for the Ingalls family as they are given all the provisions they need in the large, comfortable house. They spend a cozy winter with their new friends, Mr. and Mrs. Boast, and both families look forward to starting their new claims in the spring.
Mary accidentally sets the barn on fire while cramming for an important school competition. Substitute-teacher Caroline deals with a boy (Dirk Blocker) ridiculed for his limited literacy. A charismatic preacher (James Olson) entices residents from the Rev. Alden's teachings.
Albert struggles with feelings of guilt, while Jonathan Garvey starts to drink alcohol, blaming God for his wife's death. Later, a gift from Albert to Mary awakens her memory of the fire and the loss of her baby, and her screams frighten Albert into running away. Albert eventually seeks out his estranged father Jeremy, only to stumble upon a freshly-dug grave at his homestead and realize Jeremy has just died, and he has nowhere else to go now. Charles and Jonathan set out to discover the truth about the fire and to track down Albert, and it is Jonathan who convinces Albert that it wasn't his fault that the two had died. Adam returns from New York City to announce that his father has offered to finance the rebuilding of the school, and has insisted that it be named "The Alice Garvey and Adam Kendall Jr. School for The Blind".
But she is lifted by the energy and eagerness that still sometimes surprises her. A 10-year-old girl dressed in a long blue floral dress with a white apron and bonnet waits in line with a small notebook for an autograph. Wearing jeans and a black ’90s inspired black T-shirt with three images of Charles Ingalls that reads "PA," she says she watched “Little House” every week growing up. She shared the show with her five kids, but confesses only her three daughters enjoyed it. They paid $45 a day or $200 as a VIP (they did receive a turkey and mashed potato lunch and a commemorative poster) for access to meet and greets and panels. So this is how I find myself now, here with Gilbert, nearly 50 years after “Little House” premiered, standing in front of a replica of the set of the little house, which was a replica of the real house in Walnut Grove, Minnesota, in the 1800s.
