My name is Emma. I am five years old. I live with my family and our pets.

1

I love being at home with my family. Our home is filled with lots of love, warmth and different noises and smells.

2

I have a stuffed animal called Muimui. I love how soft and cuddly she feels when I hug her tight

3

When I run out into the garden, I smell the wonderful sweet smell of daddy's flowers in his garden

4

The house is often filled with the sweet melodies that come from my sisi's bedroom where she plays music from her radio.

5

Out in the garden are our family pets. They run around the garden chasing each other and trampling daddy's garden.

6

Mama calls us in for dinner. I quickly gobble up my spicy pepper soup so I can have some sweet cake for dessert.
