I know it's true but...!

Ellie created a beautiful piece of art from the tiny flowers from her playmobil today.  She arranged them to create a picture of a cake, with a spotty pattern on the side and covered in tiny candles.

"Mummy Mummy come and see what I've made for you"
"Oh, that's so beautiful and clever - a cake with lots of candles"
"Yes, because you're really old aren't ya?"
