Hola, me llamo Sofía y tengo una familia grande. Yo vivo con mi madre, mi padrastro, dos hermanastros, y dos hermanastras. También, mi abuela vive con nosotros. Mi perro es un miembro importante de mi familia, y él se llama Sancho. Mi familia necesita un carro muy grande para transportar ocho personas, y por eso nosotros tenemos un Toyota Highlander. Nosotros comemos mucha comida, y mi madre y yo vamos al supermercado dos o tres veces cada semana.
El hermano de mi madre vive muy cerca de nosotros. Él es mi tío Ramón, y él tiene una esposa (mi tía Anita) y dos hijos. La hermana de mi madre vive cerca de nosotros también, y ella y su esposo Miguel tienen cuatro hijos. Todos mis primos son graciosos.
Nos gusta celebrar los cumpleaños con toda la familia. Típicamente, las fiestas están en mi casa, porque hay un patio grande. Mi abuela siempre prepara un pastel sabroso, y mi madre y padrastro preparan la comida. Mis hermanastros y yo decoramos el patio con globos y luces. Cuando toda la familia está aquí, comemos la comida y el pastel, abrimos los regalos, y rompemos las piñatas con un bate de béisbol. A veces, jugamos un juego o vemos un partido en la tele. ¡Me encantan las fiestas de cumpleaños!
por eso= because of this
