A Happy Surprise



It was Saturday night. We sat at the table and ate potatoes and green beans. One moment my mum started to talk about how big she was.

I said, " I don’t know."
I said,  "what’s the matter then?" 
"I’m going to have a baby."

I looked at my mum and I was surprised. I stood up and I jumped all the time, and I was very happy.
