January 6

As every year, the king’s day I woke up early and went to the living room with my parents and my brother. There were a good part of my gifts. This year have been a camera, a jacket, some bracelets and a calendar. Then I went to my cousins’ house, where I received a very nice jersey. His daughter, eight months old, did not know where to look with so many toys. Finally I went to my grandparents’ house, we gave them a small television and for me, there were a boots and a book. Then I came to eat at my house and my grandmother came in the afternoon for coffee.
I did not do much more, but it was a beautiful day where everyone was happy with their gifts.
