name is Stella, and I am a girl.<br />
My name is Violette, and I am a girl.<br />
Do you have any brothers or sisters? What are<br />
their names and ages? I have one sister. Her<br />
name is Sylvie and she is 7. I sometimes play<br />
horsey with her. (She likes it when I try to buck<br />
her off.) She can be annoying also.<br />
I have 2 brothers and I don’t have any sisters.<br />
I am the smallest. My biggest brother is name<br />
Rafael. His age is 20. He is special. He always<br />
plays with me. My second brother is 18. This<br />
year is the last year for him in school. He plays<br />
football very well. I always play with him.<br />
How old are you, and when is your birthday?<br />
How do you celebrate your birthday? What gifts<br />
would you like to receive? I am 10. My birthday<br />
is November 14, 2001. I usually celebrate my<br />
birthday by having a party and cake. I would<br />
REALLY like to receive a dog, but it probably<br />
won’t happen.<br />
I am 10. My birthday is December 6, 2001. I<br />
always celebrate my birthday with a party. I have<br />
surprises on that day, plus gifts and a party. My<br />
dream is that someone will give me something<br />
for sports. My mom gave me a ball for the Barcelona<br />
team.<br />
Do you play any sports? I do. I play soccer. I<br />
play defense most of the time. I play on a team<br />
called the Cheetahs. I practice with my team on<br />
Wednesday or Thursday; otherwise I don’t practice<br />
a lot. (I don’t have a big backyard.)<br />
Yes, I do. I play football. I am on my school<br />
team. I always practice at my Grandma’s house<br />
because it has a very big backyard.<br />
What do you do in your spare time? I bike, play<br />
soccer, draw, and do my hair. I put my hair in<br />
ponytails and buns, and sometimes I color it.<br />
I read a story, play football, go to friends’<br />
houses and I also sing. I love to sing.<br />
What is your favorite animal? My favorite animal<br />
is an owl. I have lots of owl things like owl stuffed<br />
animals and owl hats. I love the color of owls’<br />
feathers and they fascinate me in general.<br />
My favorite animals are puppies. I always tell<br />
my mom to buy me one, but she doesn’t like<br />
puppies.<br />
Do you have any pets? What kinds? What are<br />
their names? I don’t have any pets. I have always<br />
wanted a pet. If I did have a pet I would get a dog<br />
and name it Coco.<br />
I had a dog. I named it Lucky. One day he got<br />
sick and died.<br />
What do you want to be when you grow up?<br />
When I grow up I want to be a fashion designer.<br />
My Aunt is a Fashion Designer and she really<br />
inspires me. I like lots of different kinds of fashion.<br />
Do you?<br />
I want to be a businesswoman. Like my big<br />
brother, I like this job because I will have my own<br />
laptop and my bag.<br />
What is your favorite color? My favorite color is<br />
purple because it is pretty and awesome!<br />
My favorite color is also purple because my<br />
name is Violette. It’s the meaning of the purple<br />
flower.<br />

food is ice cream, it is delicious and the best<br />
food ever! I love mint chocolate chip ice cream in<br />
a waffle cone. I usually buy it at Dreyers, an ice<br />
cream place here.<br />
My favorite food is hamburgers. My mom<br />
always makes it for us. When we go to any<br />
restaurant, I will eat a hamburger.<br />

singer is Adele or Justin Bieber. They have great<br />
voices and are great singers.<br />
