Brittany’s Favourite Things

My Dad

Dad is my hero because he cares about the neighbourhood, animals in my house and people. I got two stories about lives in the neighbourhood.

Story #1

On a beautiful Saturday morning I was in my house making Easter table decorations. Ever half hour the bus comes around, but it comes around so fast we thought something or someone will get hit. Any way the bus came around and the neighbour’s dog always comes to visit us when we come home. The bus comes around, I hear a whack, then a yelp, and then barking a small dog. I said oh no. My Dad came running out to see if it’s OK. Let’s thank the world that the dog is not dead.

Story #2

A day after I got Stella ( My New Hamster) She got her head stuck and almost died. When My Dad came home from his motorbike ride I was almost crying. Stella got her head stuck in a tube that leads to her wheel. I just touched her to see if she was OK and she was whimpering (crying). My Dad came in quickly, took the wheel out of it’s spot and saved her life. Each of her pouches had three big peices of food.

He cares about everything and everyone. That is why he is my hero. 

“Dad may I please get a hamster on Sunday”

Ever since grade 3 I wanted to get a new hamster. Finally on April 21, 2009, I got a cute little hamster and here is my story.

For the past week there was an chinchilla looking for a new home. When I heard that I kept on asking my parents. I went into my room and I realized my room was not big enough for two 3 feet cages because they are bigger than a guinea pig.

Here is in order, how big the domestic rodents are, from small to big.

1. Hamster
2. Guinea Pig
3. Chinchilla
4. Rabbit
5. Ferret

When my parents came home April 21th I asked my parents if I can get a hamster.  That night my parents went for a drive and came home with a box from Petland. I almost screamed. It was a hamster. If it was a boy I will call him Russel. but it’s a girl and her name is Stella and she is active, cute and funny.

Tell me about your pets or if you don’t have a pet which one would you like? Tell me in a comment!!

You can also see what Stella looks like because I have a virtual pet hamster.

I love the holidays, the tree, the carols, the fun and most importantly the joy of giving. If you’re going to shop for people, think about what they like. That’s what I do.

Some kids write a letter to Santa Claus but you already know about him. I’m also going to tell you about what happens every year.

It’s a week before the holidays and everyone is busy, they wish it was a white Christmas. Some of you might not know the phrase white Christmas. White Christmas means it snows through Christmas, Cool right. Well guess what we’re getting a white Christmas this year HOORAY; OK let’s get back to the topic.

It’s the day before Christmas also known as Christmas Eve. Every year family comes up to our house. We have dinner and then we go look at Christmas lights. My favorite houses are houses that are covered top to bottom with Christmas lights.

“Brittany wake up its Christmas” whispered my Mom. After I heard that I jumped out of bed like a jack rabbit. Yes Christmas finally came. I ran to the living room like a race horse.

First we open our stockings. One year I got cat toys for my new hamster cage. I can’t tell you what’s going on this year because we didn’t have Christmas yet.

After we have open presents we go to Grandma’s house for a yummy pancake breakfast.

Since my uncle came up we get to open more presents. Last year my aunt gave me at least two pounds of chocolate.

Now we go to my Oma’s for lunch and more presents. Lunch is always the best. Usually we have a tossed salad with meat and the last thing is always a surprise.

Sometimes we go back to Grandma’s for dinner and to spend time with the family.

For dinner is a typical dinner. Turkey, stuffing, potatoes and lots of other stuff.

That’s what I do for Christmas. What do you do for Christmas?
