On Saturday 23rd, my family and I had a very early Easter. We wanted it to be early so that we wouldn’t have to wait so long. It would be very boring to have to wait. It’s not even Easter day today!
Josh and I were very excited because we knew that we had a special surprise! When we got up, there was a basket outside our door but we just walked right past it without noticing! Our parents were waiting for us in their room. They said we were going to do an easter egg hunt! We took the basket and inside was two small packets of mini eggs and a piece of paper shaped like an easter egg. It had a clue to where the next egg was.
We kept on reading clues and finding out where other eggs were hiding. The last ones were in our dad’s car. There were two mini eggs and four big eggs! Two for me and two for Josh just like we wanted. But we weren’t finished yet…
The easter bunny had one last clue for us. The last gift was in the boot of the car. We slowly opened the boot of the car and inside was… One BIG box and one SMALL box wrapped in pink shiny paper. We both got very excited about whose present was the biggest. I was a bit disappointed when I was told the small one was mine, because it looked like a book. We took our presents inside to open them. Josh got a little overexcited and began to think that his present was a VR headset!
Josh opened his box first and when he saw the word ‘Oculus’ he went insane! He actually got a VR Oculus Rift S headset! How did Easter turn into birthdays? I was beginning to think that since Josh got his early birthday present, I might get the new iPhone I was getting for my birthday in Summer. I tore off the paper and revealed a white box sellotaped closed. It looked nothing like a phone box so I decided not to get my hopes up. But when I finally managed to get the sellotape off the box, (my parent’s cameras aimed at me) I found a brand new iPhone 8 gold!!! It was amazing and I was really happy! Better than I had thought. Although sadly, after the first day of using it, it went really wonky and had to be sent back. 🙁 I’m going to get a new one luckily!
I hope everyone in quarantine has a very happy Easter also!
Very well written Abi, you described your “Easter” morning very well. I’m glad you like your early birthday present and hope it gets you through these strange Coronavirus times.
