I turned eight on 20^th of May 2018 .  This year’s birthday party was the best birthday party I have celebrated till date.  I woke up in the morning with the Happy Birthday music , loud wishes ,warm hugs and kisses from my parents. I turned around and found gifts wrapped with colourful papers heaped on my study table. Gifts included a gigantic pink teddy bear, lots of story books, painting books, two dresses, and needless to say lots of chocolates ,cookies and wafers. My happiness and excitement knew no limits.

After freshening up I wore one of the new dresses,it was a light yellow frock with navy blue polka dots and a big bow . My parents took me to the nearby Kali temple for seeking the blessings of the goddess. After returning home my mother served me with my favourite breakfast ,  aloo puri,  chana masala , kheer and gulab jamun. Everything was cooked by my mom, delicious indeed . My friends and relatives wished me over phone and said that they were all coming home in the evening for the party. I was more than happy, knowing that there’s going to be a “SURPRISE BIRTHDAY PARTY”. My mom cooked pulao and chicken korma , and for dessert she made kesar kulfi.  Lunch was yummy!

My mom dressed me up beautifully in the evening. My party dress was a beautiful white gown with red roses stiched all over. I entered  the hall with a heart full of excitement. The hall was looking stunning , with colourful streamers, twinkling lights, balloons and fresh flowers. The dark chocolate cake decorated with cherries,roses ,chocolate chips,wafers and a beautiful lotus candle looked simply awesome. All the guests started streaming in from 6 o clock. All my friends and cousins were waiting for me to cut the cake. So without any delay , I  began the cake cutting ceremony. After cutting the cake , it was time for me to burst the huge balloon which had toffees inside it. The hall was buzzing with the conventional yet the most loved happy birthday song. Guests were served with soft drink, chicken cheese balls, paneer  balls, French fries and of course ; slices of the cake. I distributed the return gifts to all my friends and cousins.

We played lots of games like, dumb charades, musical chair, passing the parcel etc. There was a dance party , in which all the elders also participated. Thereafter everyone joined for dinner.  The menu for dinner was paratha, paneer butter masala ,mutton Biryani, Chicken chanp, fish orly,  hot malpua with ice cream . Soon the party came to an end, all my friends and relatives started departing. I opened  the gifts at night, they were lovely, I liked all of them. I thanked mom and dad for the party and after saying my prayers and thanking god for the wonderful day I went off to sleep.
