GRANDMA'S VISIT

It was 2pm on Friday and the school bell had just gone. The school was over and all the kids were excited that it was Friday again. "Hi, Mrs Briggs". 
"Hello Cynthia, how are you doing today?" "I'm very fine, thank you. Caleb!!! Boma!!! your mum is here".
"Bye Miss Cynthia", the kids screamed as they ran to their mum's car.


Boma and Caleb sat quietly in front of the tv, while they watched their favourite show on Cbeebies.


"Ring ring ring," the doorbell rang. Caleb stood up and ran towards the door. "Come back," Boma said. "Mummy said we are not allowed to answer the door". "So should we keep the visitor waiting?" He asked. 
Just then, the childrens' mum rushed out of her room and went straight to the door.


"Grandma, she said with excitement, as she opened the door.
"Grandma!!! Grandma !!!," the kids screamed, as they both hugged their grandmum.



They loved their grandmother, particularly because she always had a lot of gifts for them and fun stories to tell. 

The next day was the 21st of June and it was grandma's 70th birthday. The kids were so excited to wake up very early that morning. They helped mum bake grandma's cake and make some special cookies. Next, Mum, Dad, Caleb, and Boma went into grandma's room to surprise her. 

"Good morning Grandma," Boma said.
As grandma turned to respond, the four of them chorused a loud "Happy Birthday!!!" They also presented the cake to the celebrant. Next, Caleb started the Happy Birthday song and everyone joined in.




Later that day, the kids designed birthday cards for their granny, mum prepared a special dinner and Dad got her a beautiful gift. Grandma was so grateful, she loved her family so much. 



The next afternoon, it was time to say goodbye to grandma. Once again the kids took turns to hug and peck their grandma. They went off to bed early that night, Monday was a school day.
