She turned twelve recently, so her parents held a birthday party for her. The party began at about three in the afternoon. There were about twenty of us children gathered in Amira's house. We were all dressed in our best clothes. Everyone, especially Amira, wore a happy smile. We gave our presents to Amira and she happily opened them. It must really be exciting to receive all those presents. After that Amira's mother served us a soft drinks and delicious titbits. We then played some games like "Musical Chairs" and "Treasure Hunt".
The winners were given prizes.At about four-thirty Amira's mother brought out the birthday cake.
It was beautifully decorated with pink and white icing.
Twelve colourful candles sat in the middle of the cake. We all sang "Happy Birthday" to Amira after which she blew out the candles and cut the cake. We clapped our hands eagerly. We helped ourselves to slices of the delicious cake. Then we continued our games. Finally at about six in the evening, the party came to an end. We were all tired but happy. The parents of the other children came to collect them. I helped Amira and her mother clean up the mess we made. After that, I was asked permission want to go back home.
