My Childhood By Nadira Sultana I was born in Bangladesh. I used to live with my family. I have two brothers. I used to live in the countryside. I used to play games with my cousin. I used to play hide and seek. I used to swim in the river. I used to sleep with my mom. I went to school with my cousin. I used to sleep in the afternoon with my father in the summertime. I didn‟t cook when I was little. When I was a child I used to go to the mall with my father. I had a good moment and I think that was the best part of my life. I was the happiest person in the world. My family, teachers and relatives loved me so much. I also loved them and still I love them so much that it cannot explain it in a word. I miss my childhood so much. After all I enjoyed my childhood and that was the favorite part of my life.
