To have fun, you should go jogging with a friend or a member of your family and talk together when you are jogging. It is very wonderful to drink a glass of cold juice after jogging.

Tomorrow is my dad’s birthday. I will make a birthday card for him. First, I will cut a rectangle of the card and fold it in half. Second, I will draw a picture of my family on the card.

My mum wants to give him a present, so she will make a birthday cake and cook a lot of food for dad’s birthday party. “I will invite a lot of friends tomorrow,” Daddy said. My dad will be glad. I hope so.
