If I could be an animal


I don`t like animals so much but if I could be an animal I would like to be a bird, so I could see the beautiful nature in the whole world. I would always live in nature and fly to diffrent places.

The story about Andrew

Andrew is a teacher at St George TAFE. He lived several years in Thailand becouse his wife worked in the Australian Embassy in Bangkok. He worked there too as a prison visit officer for Australian prisoners in overseas jails.
When they lived in Thailand, he and his wife decided to adopt two children, so they adopted one boy who was 7 and his name is Nut. Later, they adopted a second boy whose name is Num.
Soon after that, they decided to came back to Australia becouse life is better for their children here than life in Thailand. Now, they live in Sydney. Andrew works at TAFE and his boy go to school.
It`s a very interesting story. Andrew is a very good teacher and I think that he is a very good father for his boys and that they are a happy family.
