Meanwhile Nina Ivanovna saw that the smallest boy in the class, who had not joined in the noise, had been sitting quietly in his place, smiling. He's the new Slavick. Nina Ivanovna praised him, and then said to the children: "Oh, you innocent little things! You all say your mother is the prettiest. How is that possible? If you look at Slavick, he is the youngest in our class, but he is the smartest. Because he doesn't quarrel or make noise, and he doesn't point to pictures."

"That's because he's new and timid!" "Said the black-eyed IRA.

"No, it's not that at all." Nina Ivanovna said, "He doesn't make noise because he knows that the most beautiful person can only be one person. Let's ask Slavick which of us has the prettiest mother. We will give her this beautiful mimosa."

Only then did they see Nina Ivanovna's handfuls of fragrant mimosa, for they had been too busy quarrelling and looking at their mother.

"All right! All right!" The children agreed. "Let Slavick speak. He had been sitting there quietly, and had not said that his mother was the prettiest. He must be right."

"Slavik, come forward and show whose mother is the prettiest." Nina Ivanovna said.

Slavick got up, walked slowly to the front, and pointed to a photograph of an elderly woman in an old cotton-padded jacket and a torn kerchief.

"She's the prettiest." "Slavik said.

It was a terrible mess. The children screamed again. Everyone thought Slavick was wrong. Some of the children laughed their heads off.

'Why are you laughing? "She just doesn't dress well," Slavik said. She was wearing overalls, which Uncle Vasily had taken of her in the factory. You won't recognize her when she wears a pretty dress for the holidays!"

"He said his mother was the prettiest on purpose so that she could get the straw."

"Aunt Nina Ivanovna, don't give his mother a mimosa!" "Cried some of the children.

"She is not my mother! Slavik said in surprise. "She's not my mother at all. She's Grandma Kim! My mother is prettier than Grandma Kim!"

"Which golden granny are you talking about?" "The children kept asking.

Slavick said, "It's Grandma Kina. When I was a kid, I didn't say 'Kina,' just 'Kim.' From then on, Grandma Kina became Grandma Kim. Mom and Dad went up north to work, leaving me with Grandma Kim. They were gone for two years. Grandma Kim is very kind. She always plays with me. Now that I'm older and in kindergarten, Grandma Kim goes back to the factory. She always buys me toys and presents when I give out money. Now I have a lot of toys. I take special care of these toys because they are from Grandma Kim."

Then Nina Ivanovna said to the children, who were sitting in silence: "Look, my little ones! Everyone thinks mom is the prettiest because you all love your mom. That is to say, the person we like the most is the most beautiful person. Whether he is old or young, adult or child."

As soon as the teacher said this, Nata asked, "You say everyone is beautiful, but to whom shall we give this mimosa?"

Nina Ivanovna replied: "Since we have just agreed, we will give it to Grandma Kim. Besides, there will be many children's mothers coming to us during the holidays, but there is only one Grandma Kim. We gave her the flowers because she was the oldest of the mothers. Are you OK?"

Everyone agreed. On that day, Grandma Jin and the children's mother came to the kindergarten together. The children saw her wearing beautiful holiday clothes, with a full head of silver hair and wrinkles on her face. Her kind and kind eyes smiled at everyone.

The children recited poems at the celebration. When the show was over, the children gave their mothers the pictures on the delicate red frames. Sveta gave the grass to Kim on behalf of the children.

Kim thanked everyone and then gave each child a mimosa. Each send a tree, she fondly stroked the child's head. As she stroked Sveta's head, Sveta suddenly felt Grandma Kim's hand as soft and kind as her mother's. Sveta was no longer upset that her mother didn't get flowers.

Vlaquik said to everyone: "Next year my father will go to the Kuril Islands to travel, such as' 38 'day, I bring grandpa's picture, let's also send him a bunch of mimosa."

'Little fool!' said NAT. Only International Women's Day, not Men's Day!"

Nina Ivanovna told the group: "There is no International Women's Day, but it doesn't matter. One day we hold such a festival in the kindergarten, so that dad and grandpa also happy happy!"

The mothers laughed happily. Grandma Kim was the most happy, because the children gave her a bunch of mimosa.
