5 . Gramma Goodie visits her grandchildren every Sunday afternoon. And every time, Gramma Goodie has gifts (礼物). Sometimes it’s something you need, like socks or sweaters. Sometimes it’s movie tickets or a big teddy bear.

One Sunday, Chris and Jamie heard their parents talking. They said that Gramma’s birthday was next Sunday. They were going to plan a special dinner and make a delicious cake for her birthday surprise.

“Gramma Goodie has a birthday?” they thought. Both were a little confused. Grammas have birthdays? Who in the world knew?

“Well, we have to get her a gift,” Jamie decided.

“But what?” asked Chris. “Gramma Goodie has EVERYTHING!”

They thought about many things. A scarf? She had many. Flowers? She had a rose garden. Oh, what would Chris and Jamie do? They spent all week thinking. They thought in math class. They daydreamed during breaks. They thought themselves to sleep! Nothing came to mind.

On Sunday, the doorbell rang. As always, Gramma Goodie had gifts. The children thanked her and left to think about Gramma’s gift.

At dinner, the children were quiet as mice.

“Now I can’t have you sad on my birthday,” said Gramma. “What’s wrong with you two?”

“Gramma, we wanted to give you something special for your birthday,” Jamie said.

“But we thought of nothing,” said Chris.

Gramma smiled and held the children in her arms. Then she said near their ears. “Oh, my dear, don’t you know? You two are the best gifts I could ever ask for.”
