My friend Jane had her tenth birthday. Her house was decorated with balloons and streamers Her mother had baked a big birthday cake. The cake had“happy tenth birthday party Jane”written on it. There were ten candles on the cake. Jane blew out the candles and made a wish. I wonder what she wished for. Your wish won't come true，if you tell anyone what it was. We sang“happy birthday to you”. At the party we played some games. I won one of the games，so I got a prize. We also swam in Jane's swimming pool. Jane opened her gifts. Her gifts were wrapped in bright paper and bows. She got lots of nice gifts. She got some compact discs，some clothes and some computer games. Jane thanked everyone. We ate a lot of food at Jane's party. We had hot dogs. I put mustard and ketchup on my hot dog. Then we ate cake and ice cream. We had pop to drink. I think I had too much cake and ice cream. I was very full by the time the party was over. We thanked Jane and her mother before we all went home. It was a very good party. Everyone had a good time. I hope Jane had a happy tenth birthday.

The trees are full of buds，and the flowers are starting to bloom. My favorite flowers are tulips and daffodils. The birds come back from the south. I can always tell that the spring is here when I see my first robin of the season. The robins pull worms from the wet ground. When it isn't rainy my friends and I go outside and toss a ball around. We look forward to the summer，but we are glad to get outside after the long winter. The air smells so fresh in the spring. My mother always tells me not to track mud into the house. It's very muddy in our yard in the springtime. I wipe my muddy feet before I go into the house. There are a lot of puddles in my yard. I sometimes splash in the puddles，and I get wet and cold，so I have to go into the house. I like it when the snow has melted，the rain has stopped and the sun comes out. On sunny days，I always get together with my friends. On those days，we either ride our bikes or play ball. My parents like to go for walks on spring evenings. They also like to clean up the yard in the spring. Everyone seems to be outside. The springtime brings people out of their houses.

I named her Puff because her fur is soft and fluffy. She has white fur，but her tail，paws and ears are black. She has a little pink nose and yellow eyes. She says“Meow”whenever she wants a bowl of milk. I feed her cat food and treats. She washes her face with her paw when she is finished eating. My whole family loves her，and we can tell that she loves us. She loves to curl up in our laps. She purrs whenever we pet her. She is very playful. We sometimes roll up a piece of paper and throw it to her. She loves to chase the paper and hit it with her paws. She also chases bugs. Last night she chased a spider，but she was afraid to touch it. At night she curls up in my bed with me. She likes to be warm. I have given her a blanket of her own，but when I put her on it her tail twitches. Her tail twitches whenever she is upset or angry. I know that she doesn't want to be on her blanket. She wants to be in my bed. I let her into my bed，and she falls asleep purring loudly.

People like you more when you are polite. Always say please and thank you. If you ask for some milk，you should say“please，may I have a glass of milk？”. When someone gives you the milk，you should respond with“thank you.” . It is not difficult to be polite. You should not push or shove people. You should cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze. You should address people properly. If you are trying to get someone's attention，you would say“excuse me.”. You wouldn't say“hey you.”. There are table manners. That is where you eat properly and politely at the dinner table. You don't shove food into your mouth. You don't reach over other people's plates. You don't talk with your mouth full. All of these things are common sense. Being polite is mostly thinking about how you would like to be treated. You wouldn't want people to be impolite to you. It is not polite to point at people. It is not polite to burp out loud. It is not polite to use someone else's things without asking first. Being polite just comes naturally if you have been brought up in a home where everyone was polite.
