Birthday Present
December 31, 2007
Yesterday was Tom’s birthday. Tom’s parent threw a party for Tom’s special day. All of Tom’s friends went to the party and they also brought Tom’s birthday presents. Tom was really happy when he was opening the presents he got. To his surprise, a puppy came out of the box. Tom’s parents knew that their son loved dogs so they gave him what he really wanted.
After the party, Tom named the puppy Mike and took it for a walk with a leash on Mike. They went to the park and Tom unleashed Mike because they were playing Throw and Catch. Suddenly, Tom wanted to go to the bathroom and he left Mike and ran away. When he came back, he found only Mike’s leash without Mike! Tom was really frustrated and trying to find his dog around the park. Unfortunately, he couldn’t find it and went home for his parent’s help. On the way home, Tom thought it was the worst birthday he had.
Things didn’t follow as he thought. To his amazement, he found that Tom was sitting in front of his house and waiting for Tom. Tom smiled. He rushed to Mike, hugged it tightly and said that it was his best birthday and birthday present ever.
