Earlier in the week I texted Mr. TheBoyandMe and asked if The Boy was buying or making me a card. The reply was most indignant as he was buying the equipment to make it at the time. Yesterday morning, The Boy and daddy sat down to make the card and this morning I was presented with this little beauty. Mr. TBaM stuck the pipe cleaners on only, the rest is all from The Boy.
And inside, he'd written his name perfectly spelt.
But you'll have to take my word for that…
Multiple mummy says
So cute! I love the face! π Happy Mother's Day
TheBoyAndMe says
I look just like it!
Jayne says
That is absolute gorgeous! I got two, one made at nursery and one made by Daddy on Funky Pigeon with a picture of me and Sausage on it! I also got a clay pot that she'd made and painted herself in pink and purple. Best Mother's Day ever! xx
TheBoyAndMe says
They sound fab! I had one from playgroup as well but I was quite unimpressed with it, he hadn't been given the opportunity to write his name or wave a pencil at the inside and he can actually write his name.
This one had it written inside in BIG letters!
Jennypaulin says
I had hoped for a homemade card if I am honest but at least I got a card so i mustn't complain!
Your boy is a great artists n the making and it looks very much like you π
(ps. Did he write mummy then aswell? ) xx
I hope you had a wonderful day x
TheBoyAndMe says
He didn't write mummy but daddy wrote the letters out and he matched them up from the stickers on the sheet. I think it's an excellent likeness, especially the highlights π
HELEN says
lovely card…he's very artistic
TheBoyAndMe says
Thanks very much missus!
Donna Bird says
awww thats lovely. I love homemade cards they are the best π x
TheBoyAndMe says
I need to get a pretty shoe-box to store them all in, I suspect I'll have a few over the years!
Crystal Jigsaw says
That's so lovely. The homemade ones are by far the best. I keep all Amy's cards. She made me one at school and it's gorgeous!

TheBoyAndMe says
This means so much more than the bought ones.
Kate says
That is brilliant! Clever boy :0) Handmade cards are most definitely the best. Happy Mother's Day chick xx
TheBoyAndMe says
He was so proud of it as well.
fivegoblogging says
Perfect! Definitely the best kind of card
TheBoyAndMe says
Thank you
twopointfourchildren says
wow well done to the boy. K made me at least three cards and buster scribbled on his!
TheBoyAndMe says
Three cards is very enthusiastic!
BeautifulBabyTales. says
Well done, clever boy. I am hoping to be as clever as you are when i am older as i am still too young to make cards for my Mummy yet!
TheBoyAndMe says
Just make sure that daddy realises he needs to help you do it!
Donna@MummyCentral says
At last we have a picture of you. I'll know who to look out for when we eventually meet ;-D
TheBoyAndMe says
I'll make sure my hair is styled the same.
Reluctant Housedad says
Stunning likeness π And yes indeed, it is the thought and the effort that counts far more than a snatched from the shelf Hallmark card.
TheBoyAndMe says
You can never find a perfect Hallmark card anyway, this is so much better!
would like to be a yummy mummy says
Gorgeous cards, I love handmade ones and was thrilled that poppy made me something at Schoolx
TheBoyAndMe says
It's so lovely isn't it? The first of many to come.
Susan Mann says
Aww that's gorgeous, I feel that these make being a mummy worthwhile x
TheBoyAndMe says
Without a shadow of a doubt!
Helen says
Love looking back at the truckloads of awesome things my little crafters have made over the years. Be sure to scan and save them as a nice record of their development for them to laugh at in later years!!
TheBoyAndMe says
I'm going to start scanning them in and keeping a record of them, but also put them into a nice shoebox type thing!
