Dear mummy and daddy,
Your the best people I ever met. I know sometimes I say your the worst but I don't really mean it.
Daddy thank you for playing chess with me and making money.
Mummy thank you for yummy dinners and planing things.
I love you.

Claire -- had tears in my eyes when I read it!

That's such a lovely letter, do save it and show it to her when she's 13 and screaming 'I hate you' at the top of her voice!

Liz - good idea, think I'll frame it. I love the spellings!
Posted by: A Modern Mother | 29 October 2009 at 09:17 AM
This is so sweet! I love 'Your the best people I ever met.' Could have been from someone aged 37, not 7.

Met -- yes, not sure where that came from....

Awww that's lovely. I save all the notes Lily writes me for when she hates me as a teenager ;)
Posted by: Liz@VioletPosy | 29 October 2009 at 09:37 AM
Liz - ALL the notes? I'm so jealous you have more than one!!

How wonderful, children bring you so much joy. I remember my MIL telling me how lucky I was to be having a child and that they would bring so much joy to my life when I was pregnant. well I scoffed, but she has never said a truer word and this is from the woman who fell out with my mum at our reception!!

The Mad House -- ooooh, tell more....

That and a huggie! They really know how to totally outflank you and it's wonderful!

Save it so you can pull it out when she hits about age 14.

Sums it all up!

Pity she was a little terror today!
Posted by: A Modern Mother | 29 October 2009 at 05:30 PM
Oh how sweet! You know, my mum still has all the letters that me and my brother wrote to her like this. A whole box full! There is one memorable one I remember her showing me where I had written that she was best friend and better than Santa.

Aw, all the letters my Mum kept are variations of: "I am running away. I hate you. Lots of love, Sally xxx"

Oh that is so sweet.
