My Birthday 🎂

Last Tuesday was my birthday. I’m going to tell you about it as if it were happening that day, because I think it sounds more natural.

I wake up at 6 a.m. as usual 😫. Then Néo’s dad, my classmate, comes into my room and wishes me a Merry Christmas. He got confused, but honestly, I didn’t mind. It actually made me smile.

Nothing important happens at school. I don’t tell anyone that it’s my birthday because I don’t want to bother anyone or make a big deal out of it.

When I get back home, I notice that Néo’s mum has put up a “Happy Birthday” sign (in French, of course).

For dinner, we go to a sushi restaurant because I asked for it for my birthday. We have a really nice dinner, and when we get home, they sing “Happy Birthday” to me in Spanish and give me a cake so I can blow out the candles.

Honestly, it’s been a really good day. 🎂
