My 10th Birthday
I jumped out of my bed
yelling “It’s my birthday, it’s my birthday, it’s my tenth birthday!” I
exclaimed wearing my big, black sweatshirt and my blue plaid pants. My mom came out behind me, creeping down the
hall, and gave me a hug.
I
skipped down the hallway with excitement to the kitchen. Five pancakes had
appeared on my plate in front of me, with maple syrup running down the side. As
a bonus, it had whipped cream that made this breakfast the best.
After I was done eating my pancakes,
my kitten jumped on me and started purring. It almost took my heart away. Then,
at the scent of the fresh cat food placed on his tray, he jumped up like the
vacuum was turning on. I realized the time and I jumped out of my seat, sprinting
into my room changing into my purple blouse that had purple and light blue
strips with a white tank top underneath. I was also wearing my plum purple
shorts with lime green socks. All of a sudden, I heard the doorbell ring. One
foot after another down the stairs. I reached for the door handle with my
nervous, sweaty hand. Twisting it, I realized that it was my guests to my party.
When my guests came in I had them
put their bags by the TV downstairs and all of us changed into our pajamas.
All of us raced upstairs to get to
the pizza. The pizza had so much mozzarella cheese and pizza sauce on it. Each
of my guests got a piece and all of us took one bite at time to savor the
goodness. By the time they were done we all ran outside to play manhunt. We
played about 10 rounds of manhunt and then we went back inside for cake. All of
a sudden, we saw the lights go out. The candles on the cake flickered on and my
dad whispered,
“1, 2, 3…” and they all started singing happy
birthday to me. The cake had ten balloons on it. In addition to that the cake
had kittens all over it. I blew the candles
out and made a wish, each of us finished the cake in a few minutes.
After
that, we all went to the couch and watched “Finding Nemo”. My favorite part was
when all of the turtles were surfing the water and also when the seagulls were
saying, “mine, mine, mine.” By that time we all were so tired all of us fell
asleep on the couch. By morning we all had a good night sleep. We all hopped off
the couch, and ran to make homemade pancakes, which are the best in the
morning. I had looked at the time when I placed my pancakes on the table but it
was 8:45 a.m. and my guests had to leave at 9:00 a.m. After we were done eating
our pancakes we opened my presents. I had gotten a new pillow, a chest, and the
best of all, $130 dollars. (I had gotten more presents but there would be a
whole list on this piece of paper.) I had heard the doorbell ring once more and
it was the parents to pick up my friends. When I had closed the door I realized
for the first time I was finally ten years old!!
