Mum mortified as daughter makes her 'you love vodka' card at school
A mum left in stitches after her daughter made her a vodka-themed card in school thinks she's discovered where the youngster got her idea from.
The creative 10-year-old made what her mum thinks must be the 'sassiest card ever', complete with the words 'you love VODKA girl'.
Thankfully, mum-of-four Jordanna Jones, 30, received the gift with commendable grace, especially since she doesn't drink vodka.
She's also spoken to members of staff at the school where Jaelyn Jones, ten, enlisted the help of her teacher to create the card.
Jordanna, from Market Drayton, Shropshire, said: "She had the card behind her back, and was quite giggly. Then she handed it to me and I was like, 'oh my life', and laughed.

With help from a teacher (Kennedy News & Media)"It was really unexpected. I just did a nervous laugh, like, 'have you actually done this?' I was quite shocked.
"But I didn't mind, because it is quite funny.
"She's very outgoing and funny. She's quite a comedian.
"She was quite proud of it. She said that the teachers said it was great, and that they'd helped her to cut the bottle out to stick on the front.

"We had a parent's evening on Wednesday, and the teachers thought she was great. They said she'd thought outside the box, and that it was really funny."
As to Jaelyn's inspiration, the mum is not quite sure where she got the idea from, but she wonders if the cheeky ten-year-old was referencing her favourite bottle of plum gin.

She is also hopeful that husband Tom Jones, 31, will soon be in for a similar surprise, with Father's Day approaching.
Jordanna said: "My husband thought it was highly amusing. But I did remind him that it's not long until Father's Day, and that quickly took the smile off his face.
"It'll be his turn next. I'm hoping that she pulls out something for her dad on Father's Day, to make it a bit less on me."

But for now, Jordanna's card remains firmly in the limelight. When the mum shared her daughter's cheeky creation in a post on Facebook, it racked up more than 600 likes, shares and comments.
One person replied: "Fancy a ten-year-old outing you like that at school."
A second said: "I want to love and laugh [react] at the same time! You should be proud! But it is also very funny."
Another joked: "To be fair, your face wasn't on the card... blame it on nanny, granny and everyone in between."
