Speaking exercise

I have to work overtime on weekdays. My daughter likes read books, read Disney stories. She likes Cinderella because she likes blue and Cinderella is wearing a blue dress. Sometimes, we go to the park and have lunch in the restaurant. Actually, I have no time to spend with my friends, I’m very busy.

It’s not easy to get a good job now so I work very hard every day. I’m responsible to arrange the travel plans for my colleagues.

I got goosebumps when I came to the temple.

I was a clever and cute baby many years ago so I prayed to the Buddha. I got pregnant very soon. After that when I daughter was 20 months and one day she said, “Mummy, it’s not easy to find you”. She told me how to find me. It was a long journey for her to find me.
