A Birthday Party
Fiona is my neighbor. She turned
twelve recently and her parents held a birthday party for her. I was one of
those invited.
The party began at about three in the afternoon. There were
about twenty of us children gathered in Fiona's house. We were all dressed in our best clothes.
Everyone, especially Fiona, wore a happy smile.
We gave our presents to Fiona and she happily opened them.
It must really be exciting to receive all those presents.
After that Fiona's mother served us soft drinks and
delicious tidbits. We then
played some games like "Musical Chairs" and "Treasure
Hunt". The winners were given prizes.
At about four-thirty Fiona's mother brought out the birthday
cake. It was beautifully decorated with pink and white icing. Twelve colorful
candles sat in the middle of the cake. We all sang "Happy Birthday"
to Fiona after which she blew out the candles and cut the cake. We clapped out
hands eagerly.
We helped ourselves to slices of the delicious cake. Then we
continued our games.
