Story: My Grandpa

My grandpa is very kind and loving. He has soft, white hair and a big, warm smile that makes me feel happy.

Grandpa and I love to play games together. We play card games, board games, and sometimes we play outside in the garden.

Grandpa tells the funniest stories. His stories make me laugh so hard that my stomach hurts! He always adds silly voices and funny faces.

Every day, we sit in the cozy living room, and he reads me stories from his old books. I love listening to his deep voice.

Grandpa knows many songs from when he was young. We sing together, and he claps his hands to the music.

He also teaches me how to fix things around the house. Grandpa is very clever and good with tools. I like helping him with little tasks.

On sunny days, we go for walks in the park. He shows me the ducks in the pond and tells me about the trees and flowers.

Sometimes, we sit on the bench, eat ice cream, and watch people play.

My grandpa always gives the best hugs. They are warm and make me feel safe.

He is not just my grandpa; he is my best friend. I love spending time with him, and he makes every day special. Grandpa is the best!
