2. My last birthday
On my last birthday I was eight.
But now I am nine. On that day it was not
only my birthday.
My friend ’s birthday was on the
nineteenth of May, too. Her name is
Manon.
We were happy, as we both celebrated
our birthday together at school with
our friends. In the morning children of our school
sang for us “Happy birthday to you”, kissed and hugged us.
Then we ran to the table and ate the cake, fruit and sweets.
We also drank juice. Manon and me blew out the candles.
3. My present
In the evening we celebrated the birthday at
home. My brothers, sister, friends, aunt and
uncle came to my birthday.
They gave me nice dresses,
books and flowers.
We played hide-and-seek,
Then we played with my dolls and looked at my
presents.
5. My cake
• My cake was beautiful. On the cake there
were flower-candies and strawberries. It was
very tasty. My mother made it for me.
• I wore a green and white skirt, a pink T-shirt
with a heart picture on it. It was yellow and
blue. I was happy, because I was eight and I
celebrated my birthday with my friends.
