Very Proud Mummy!

Oh Gosh, my girls have had me in tears this week, not because theyve been naughty (well, Summer did push the buttons a little on one particular day, but thats not why they had me in tears), theyve just made me so proud to be their mummy.  On Wednesday, I went to pick Paige up from Kinder and I had a peek thru the door and saw her sitting on the lap of a mum who was doing kinder duty, she was sitting there, dancing and having fun and the other kids were all dancing to L-O-V-E by Hi 5.  Well that just made me cry!  I had one of my "Paige Moments" and Irene, the kinder assistant thought something had happened because she saw me crying but I had to explain that I was crying with happiness cos I was so happy and proud of Paige to be fitting in so well at kinder.

Then today it happened again!  Us mums were invited to a mothers day afternoon tea, given to us by the Bumblebees!  It was such a lovely afternoon and again, Paige had me in tears with that bloody Hi 5 song and all the mums recieved a special gift from our kids, made by the kids....

My special mothers day gift and card

A terracotta pot, painted by Paige, my artiste in the making, and a little bag of lavender, plus a card that says "Dear Mummy, I think you are special and I love you because you make me special playdoh, love from Paige".  That made me so happy and all gooey inside.  Here are a few more pics from today....

Mummy and Paige, both in stripes!

Then this afternoon I got a card from Summer that she made at daycare.  It had a little drawing on the front of it and inside was a verse that was stuck in by the carer.  When I read it I just burst into tears and I want to share it with you here....

"I miss you when we're not together

Im growing up so fast

See how big Ive gotten

Since you saw me last?

As I grow, Ill change a lot

The years will fly right by.

You'll wonder how I grew so quick

When and where and why?

So save this card in a safe place

And take it out each year

The memories will come back of me

When I was small and dear.

Happy Mothers Day"

Just reading it again has made me cry!  I dont think Ill read it without crying because its just so beautiful and so so special!  I know she didnt write it herself but its the very first mothers day card she made me and Ill treasure it forever!  Im so very proud of my beautiful girls, I may not sound like I am sometimes when I whine about them, but I love them so very much and Im so proud to be their mummy!
