I read a sad story for my kids today.
Today was the last day of four days off in a row. In the morning, I took my daughter to a beauty shop to get her hair cut.
In the afternoon, one of her friends visited our house, made pan cakes, and played together.

We had a great time with them. After eating supper, we watched a TV program "Full House" which is one of my kids' favorites.
At eight thirty, we went to bed, and I read books for my kids. Basically my kids choose books. My daughter picked up the book I don't like reading. I turned down her request.
