My Bubble

My Bubble
During the lockdown, I have spent so much time with family. What we do together
to keep all ourselves entertained is the internet. We play Fortnite, Roblox, and
kahoot. We then also board games and cards like last card, talamu, memorie and
poker. 


In my bubble I've also been alone sometimes for personal space. I have been
chilling in my room watching videos and craving Mcdonalds and KFC. 

My bubble is also boring because sometimes there is nothing to do, it’s either do
something or sleep. I kinda enjoy being around my family 24/7 and 7/24 because
they are everything.

Early Easter Morning

The Easter Morning
One Early Sunday morning, the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and other women went to the tomb of Jesus to take some special oil.  They were shocked to see the tomb opened. They ran back to tell Simon, Peter and the disciples. 
Peter and two other disciples ran back to the tomb. They saw an angel there who told them that Jesus is risen. 
Mary Magdalene was crying outside and she saw a man. She thought he is the gardener who looked after the tomb.
Mary knew it was Jesus when He called her name.
