I was invited to Madi’s birthday party.It was 3PM at her home.I arrived 5 minites earlier,Madi greeted me at door.She was wearing a snow white dress with a red bow tie on her head.When I praised her pretty dress she thanked me and told me it was handmade by Farna,her neighbor,as her birthday gift.I handed her my gift,she cheerfully put them together with the other gifts and went to her friends and classmates.
6 year old Madi has two elder sisters Katelyn 13years old and Lauren 9 years old. She also has one elder brother ,Aaron ,12,years old.When i entering the dining room ,Aaron and Katelyn were playing the X-box game on TV screen.They were very concentrated,screamed and yelled to each other.Lauren was on her lap top.i said “hi” to her,she replied but not much expression on her face.She was watching a Youtube video about a funny kitten.
Madi’s classmates came later.By 5 PM the dinner started,The kids got BBQ chicken and mashed potatoes.Some of the parents sit with their child to assist their food.Others parents get together talking,their children feed themselves.About one hour later,Madi’s family cleaned dishes,put a fruit birthday cake on talbe.All the kids got around.Madi blew the 6 candles representing her 6 years old.She looked a little bit shy when friends asked what wish did she make.She got a piece of cake and ate with her best friend Nicole on couch.
After that,she went upstairs to get a sets of toys,it’s a miniature of hair salon accessaries.She told me she loved the mini hair dryer most because it looked so real.She said it was from Nicole as her last birthday gift.Until the party was over,Madi only played with Nicole.The rest of her classmates sit with their parents or played Madi’s toys by themselves.Aaron and Katelyn played TV game till i left and Lauren went upstairs.
