BrookeMy name is Brooke. I like sports, treats, movie nights, back packing, boating and having fun with friends. I’m 10 years old. For my birthday I chose to go to the old folks home. My great grandma lives there, I call her “Grandma Great”. When I got there I felt really good because I knew it would make her happy and all of people that live there. I went there once and played the piano and it made everyone so happy so I wanted to go there again and sing Christmas carols. I invited my cousins, aunts and uncles, and grandparents to carol with me. First I played a few Christmas songs on the piano and then we sang some carols. After the songs, they clapped and one lady was giving us thank you notes for coming. They were all so happy! It made me feel good inside! After we caroled, we got to have soup and ice cream with my great grandma.

A few days after, Grandma Great called me and told me how happy it made her and how much it meant to her! She also talked to my mom about it and told her that she couldn’t believe I would choose to go there for my birthday. I will never forget that birthday!

    Hey Brooke! It’s your friend Emily. I finally got a chance to look at your mom’s website and your story. I loved it! I liked hearing about your birthday with your grandma. It was very generous for you to choose to go to your grandma’s for your B-Day. I bet you had a lot of fun singing carols and playing the piano. As I read your story I could see why you called it “Brooke’s Unforgettable Birthday”. When did you have this birthday? Was it when you turned ten? If it was, why didn’t you tell me at school? This story is truly amazing. I thought it was really inspiring. You were right. Your mom’s website is super nice. Tell her I said hi. By the way, is that your sister on the home page? It looks like her. Well it was nice to see this. Bye! ๐Ÿ™‚
