Milo was filled with excitement as the sun peeked through the curtains, marking his 5th birthday. He had spent the last few days dreaming about treats, toys, and a big cake. This year felt special, and he just knew his family would throw him the best birthday celebration yet.
As the morning unfolded, Milo waited eagerly by the kitchen, his tail wagging furiously at the sound of breakfast being prepared. But as the minutes turned into hours, he noticed something odd. His family seemed busy with chores, and there were no decorations or hints of a party in sight.
Feeling a bit disheartened, Milo decided to take matters into his own paws. He grabbed his favorite squeaky toy and carried it to the living room, making sure to squeak it loudly. Maybe this would remind them of the special day! He pranced around, tail wagging, trying to bring the joy of a celebration to the house.
Just when he thought he might be forgotten, he heard laughter coming from the kitchen. Curious, he trotted over to find his family bustling about, preparing a surprise party! Balloons floated in the air, and a beautiful cake adorned with a single candle sat on the table.
