Little Girl Tries to Extend Her Holiday Break with the Cutest Note Ever
A little girl recently made an adorable attempt to convince her mom that her winter break had been extended for another week, and the result is just too cute to handle!
Kids spend half their time in school, watching cartoons, and engaging in daily activities, while the other half is dedicated to scheming and trying to outsmart their parents. Today’s children are becoming quite resourceful! Between negotiating for more treats, dodging bedtime, sneaking vegetables off their plates, crafting fake notes, and shifting blame onto younger siblings, if kids had their way, the world might be a very different place—perhaps filled with rivers of chocolate! But let’s be real, their plans often fall short, which only adds to their charm.
In this case, a young girl presented her mom with what she claimed was a “note from school” announcing a surprise extension of winter break. The mom shared this delightful story on Reddit, explaining how her daughter went out to “check the mail” on a Sunday and returned with this letter declaring that school would be closed for one extra week.
Here’s what the girl’s letter said:
“The school company is taking a brake [sic] so the kids will get one more week of school off and we will need your child to sign their name here.” The little one had already signed off as “Lily G.” in a bold, confident stroke!
This is quite the clever little ruse! While she may not have known that the mail doesn’t run on Sundays, she even included a spot for her signature, a green arrow, and a stamp—albeit one featuring Disney’s Rapunzel. At least she understood the importance of a stamp on official documents!
Extra points go to Lily for using a different colored pen for her signature compared to the rest of the letter. While it may not fool anyone, the details she included are what really make it shine.
Lily’s inventive efforts to trick her parents resonate with many, as Reddit commenters reminisced about their own childhood attempts. One commenter shared a similar story where they forged a letter and their mom cleverly asked them to look up “forgery” in the dictionary—talk about a classic mom move!
This little girl’s letter is undeniably precious. She took the whole matter very seriously! If her skills improve over time, her mom might have to be on high alert. Regardless, it’s the kind of memory that parents cherish for years to come.
