Yesterday was my birthday. I was 8.  For breakfast I had scrambled eggs and toast with strawberry jelly.  Mommy served it on a special plate. In front of the plate was a fish bowl with a male Betta fish in it.  It is red, purple and pinkish.  I named it "Red" because most of it was red.    I didnt have to do any chores because it was my birthday.  My sister Abigail made me a card.

In the afternoon, my grandma was going to take me shopping (we call her Grammie).  When Grammie called she said she was not able to make it.  I was sad.  Then my mommy said that we could go shopping to buy me a Polly Pocket with the money my other grandmother had sent me.  While we were at the store, we couldnt find the one we wanted, so I decided I could buy a lower priced one and something else.  Then Grammie showed up at the store and took me shopping and I bought a Princess named "Belle",  a rubbery pink hair ball, and some Princess dressup stuff.   When we got home we had pizza for supper and then we had chocolate cake with chocolate icing and Oreo ice cream.  It was Yummy!
