2-Year-Old's Birthday Message to Mom Goes Viral

Local photographer Daniel Konkel had an idea for a special birthday treat for his wife: a video of their two-year-old daughter, Claire, wishing her mother a happy birthday.

What may have been a bigger birthday surprise is how much attention the Youtube video has received: it's notched more than 480,000 views, and was featured on ABC-TV's "Good Morning America" since it's Sept. 26 posting.

In the adorable video, Claire outlines why she loves her mommy so much: "Number one: you are beautiful," she says, and adds, "Number two: you are amazing."

Konkel reported uploading the video to his wife's iPad, with a note to "watch me."

“She said it was the best birthday present she ever got,” Konkel said, according to the post on Epoch Times.
