Spread Smiles
It was a beautiful day. The sky was blanketed with clouds. Everyone was enjoying this beautiful weather, but I was sleeping in my room.
My mother came and said, “Wake up dear Sameer. It is so late in the morning.
“Let me sleep mummy,” I responded hiding my head deeper in the pillow.
“No Beta,” Open your eyes. See the wonderful weather and everyone is waiting for you to get up.”
With these words, mummy left the room. I hesitantly got up and went to the bathroom with half-closed eyes. After taking a bath when I came out from bathroom, where l looked my room was decorated beautifully and gift box was kept on beside the table. I was shocked and wondered what special is it.
When I opened the box, where I have found a new book inside it. Excitedly, I took the new book which was very informative which is related to my course book and went to downstairs. While I was going down. I saw that not only my room but the entire home was decorated. And a particular thing I noticed was that there were many balloons and other beautiful things which were very glistening among the decorations.
I saw my parents wearing new clothes too and playing with my younger brother Adil who was wearing a new dress which was white.
When my parents saw me, they said, “Happy Birthday, Sameer! “
“Dad who decorated our home?” I asked my father.
My father smiled and replied, “Dear last night you went to sleep early, so I and your mummy decorated the house.”
” Is it necessary for us to celebrate my “Birthday? “
” It is not just a celebration for at home. We should celebrate with others and I have decided to invite my relatives for your “Birthday,” my father answered.
“There are many people about to join with your Birthday. So we must try and include as many people in your “Birthday” as we can so that they also realise the importance of “Birthday,” my father explained.
After listening to my father’s words, I became proud. I went out and met my friends who were my school classmates and discussing themselves. I discussed with them and told them tonight my “Birthday is there you all have to join us. All of them said in an oneness voice” OK dear,” we would come.
When the big day arrived I saw many people were gathered on other side my friends were sitting one side.
I came nearby of cake, we all shouted “Happy Birthday Sameer”, when I cut the cake.
I was very excited to get gifts with the hand of my friends. Other hands my parents demonstrated a bicycle for a gift.
I was a memorable day for me and my friends were able to spread some smiles and happiness.
