For Mother's Day last year DD1 gave me a card she had made at kindy and a little plant in a pot they had also done, with things stuck to the plant pot.

I thought the plant pot was cute but the card had me in tears. It was a picture of the two of us walking through our flower garden holding hands. The kids apparently chose their own wording and inside she had "written" : I love gluing things with you and when you make me spaghetti and when we kiss and cuddle. You're the best Mummy ever. I commented on it to one of the other mums a few days later and she said hers was nowhere near as descriptive - just "happy Mother's Day" so I knew it was genuinely what she said, rather than her teacher embellising.

Happy birthday Nikky. Sounds like you've had a gorgeous start to your day already.
