Sierra wakes up with the sun beaming through her curtains, bright & early. She rubs her eyes, has a stretch & sits up in bed. 

At that precise moment, Ramin opens the door & walks into the room carrying Saffron, with Jaiden & Hadley walking in front of him. They are holding birthday gifts for Sierra.

As they walk into the room, they sing:

"Happy Birthday To You!
Happy Birthday To You!
Happy Birthday Dear Sierra!
Happy Birthday To You!"

The two boys jump onto the bed, give Sierra her cards & presents, & give her a big hug. 

Next, Ramin sits next to Sierra on his side of the bed, still holding Saffron who quickly jumps into Mummy's arms for a cuddle. At the same time, Ramin kisses Sierra's cheek.

"Thank you!" she says to them all. "What a lovely surprise!"

"Well, are you going to open your cards & presents?" Hadley asks.

Sierra & Ramin giggle.

"Hehe, of course! Now, which one shall I open first?" she asks the boys as she passes Saffron back to Ramin.

Jaiden passes her one of the presents & says, "this one is from Saffron."

Sierra opens the present & finds a mug inside a box that says "The BEST Mummy In The World" on it. 

"Awwwwwh!" Sierra exclaims, giving Saffron a big kiss. "Thank you baby girl!"

"You have to open this one next!" Hadley says, passing another present to her. "It's from me & Jaiden."

Sierra unwraps this one & finds not one, not two, but THREE Barbara Streisand albums. She laughs & tells them, "Boys, that is so sweet! I will definitely enjoy listening to these!" They give her another big hug.

"Daddy says he has got you a present, but he won't tell us what or where it is," Hadley tells Sierra.

"Hehehe, well I'm sure I will find out in time!"

"Come on boys, we need to get you to school. You don't wanna be late!" Ramin says.

And with that, the boys jump off the bed & head towards their room to get ready for school.

At the same time, Ramin passes Saffron to Sierra so that they can both get ready & he can help the boys. Before he leaves the room though, he puts his arm around Sierra's neck & kisses her on the lips for a few, long moments.

"Happy Birthday, Sie," he says, when they eventually break away. "I love you."

"I love you too, thank you so much. It's been perfect already!" she tells him.

She kisses him once more before he heads off to help the boys get ready. Then Sierra gets out of bed & gets Saffron ready for her day at nursery.
