Mother's Day

SE's birthday coincided with Mother's Day for this year.  I didn't think much about the latter so I was totally surprised to receive cards from the girls.  There was one night earlier when they were vigorously barring me from entering the study room.  So they were secretly making these cards haha.

From JE:
The bigger one with a crown is Mummy who has piled on some pounds lately.  
She is the smaller one.
Hello!

And on the inside, a popup bunch of flowers.

I love you

From SE, an activity card.
It's a story where to heal the king who had drunk something and gone mad, I had to draw a ladder to enable Popo the hero to reach the bread, join the dots to activate holes appearing in the cheese (SE then drew the holes), drops of water into the soil for lettuce to grow, fire for cooking the chicken.  After all that Popo made a sandwich for the king and healed him.

Activities for Mummy to do

After that only could the page be turned to reveal the message.
From the king:  You saved me and the sandwich was yummy!

Happy Mother's Day!


Later in the day hubby opened a bottle of wine and cut some cheese.

Cheese

A good day indeed, especially since I didn't expect anything!
