birthday is a very wonderful day. everybody likes to celebrate it. it is a good opportunity to spend time with friends, parents, relatives.in the morning on my birthday my parents lay the presents near my bed. so the first thing i see when i open my eyes is my presents.

usually we hold my birthday party in the evening. once we went to a cafe to celebrate my birthday, but usually we celebrate it at home.in the morning of birthday party day my father goes shopping and buyes everything we need. my mother bakes a cake or pie.i am always very glad to meet my guests. i like to get flowers and presents.

we dance and sing songs, play games, tell funny stories.

i think that my birthday is one of the best days in a year.
