And it is for this exact reason that little Layla-Rae Charlton isn't happy at all.

That reaction is too much! YouTube

In a video that her mother filmed, and which you can find at the top of this article, the little girl learned the painful news:

In an interview with the Daily Mail, Joanne explains that for Layla-Rae, fast-food restaurants being closed is like ‘world war three.'

It was her being upset and crying for a few minutes then getting over it which is what she normally does–and it’s like nothing has happened now. She can have her moments–she’s just a normal four-year-old.
