"A postie knocked on my brother and sister-in-law's door asking if Eden Priest lived there or what was her address. Then a wonderful letter arrived for Eden, I assume from Daventry Post Office."

She said the thoughtful gesture has made her daughter so happy.

Rebecca added: "I would love to be able to say thank you to this lovely person if anyone knows who did it or how I could get hold of them. Such a small gesture can go such a long way and so much thought has gone into this.

"It's heart warming to know there are still some genuinely lovely people around."
