D: I’ve got something in my book bag that’s a surprise for Mother’s Day on Sunday – so you have NOT got to look in it until I’ve got it out and put it upstairs.
Me: OK.
[Comes into kitchen with a piece of paper in both hands]
D: You can see THIS picture I did – it’s a picture of a blue whale for you.
[D hands me the picture and exits the kitchen]
Me: Great – thanks.
D: You didn’t see the card I had in my other hand, did you?
Me: No.
D: Good. I’m going to hide it in my bedroom.
[Goes upstairs]…
[Comes back downstairs]
D: You know my story CDs?
Me: Yes?
D: I’ve hidded the card with them – don’t look at it will you, when you put a story CD on tonight?
Me: OK – I won’t look.

Design for thank you card following 5th birthday, July 2012

There’s Uncle Ian with my cake [in green with the spiky hair], that’s Finn [in red and green], Danny [in yellow then coloured over with blue to make green], Daniel [in red] and Aidan [with half red, half blue hair].
