I love my Mum!
My Mum and I go out nearly everywhere together. She is the best. She works as a nurse so she is really good at making me feel better when I am sick. My Mum works early in the morning so I have to go to school early.
When I am not feeling very well she lets me stay home sometimes and watch the TV or my IPad. She tries to make me feel really really brave all of the time. Sometimes we go out for an ice-cream. Once me and my Mum went out to go to a movie because there was nothing to do inside the house. I got my own popcorn so did my Mum. We watched the movie called The Croods A New Age. When I got home I felt like I was the only person in her head.
When I went to the doctor to get my covid test my Mum made my feel really brave and I was! You want to know a secret about my Mum? She never gives up on me.
My Mum mades the most amazing dinner in the world I always think that she should open a shop of all of her delicious food. Once after school me Dad picked me up and gave me the most dazzling cupcake I had ever tasted. It had vanilla on the top and the most nice bit on the bottom. She made these chocolate brownies and it had melted chocolate inside of it and on the outside too! When it is Summer we nearly always go out for a swim at a pool. My Mum is always there for me where ever I am.
She is the best in the world.
My Mum was born in Sri Lanka that means I am half Sir Lankan. Me and my Mum look the same we have the same eyes we also have the same hair. My Grandma and Grandad are My Mums Mum and Dad! That is unbelievable I could hardly believe it at all!
I am only eight years old and my Mum is thirty-six years old. Me and my Mum have that same height of hair and the same looking hair. Me and my Mum both love to eat and drink nearly every single second. When my Mum was little she did gymnastics and so do I! She was the best gymnast in her school! The thing that is different about as that I like to sleep in and my Mum likes to wake up really early in the morning.
My Mum makes me feel like I am the only person in her life since I was born.
