Writing exercise

I have two kids. A son who is 6 years old and a daughter who is 3 years old. My son is thin and he didn’t like to drink milk when he was a young baby. Even now he also eats a little . On the opposite, my daughter is fat and she has a good appetite.

My son is a nice person and he has a good temper. I think maybe he is like my husband. My husband is a good Daddy and he has spent most of his time to play with them, talk to them, read books for them. My son is not interested in games or other things which his same age person likes to do. His big hobby is to help out around the house.

My daughter has a bad temper .I think maybe she is like me. Because I am not a good temper person. She will be angry suddently because of minor things. And sometimes she pretends to be sad and her brother will be worried about her. So I think my son loves his younger sister very much. He is really a good brother.

When my daughter was about 2 years old, she could run fast and express herself clearly. So from last year, they can play with each other better and better. My husband and I can get a short break sometimes.

Every weekend, on Saturday, it’s our family time. They have no need to go to any education center. We go to some amusement parks or play with their friends. On Sunday ,sometimes they will go to an education centre to learn things. For example, lego class.
