我的孩子们长得很快。我的女几16岁了，我的儿子已上初中。随着他们一天天长大，我们的房子似乎变得越来越小了。所以我们想在庭院拍卖会上卖掉我们的一些东西，并把钱捐给儿童之家。

We have already clared a lot of things from our bedrooms We have decidedto each sell five things that we no longer use.My son was quite sad at first.Although he has not played with his old toys for a long time，he still wanted to keep them For example，he has owned atrain and railway set since，his fourth birthday，and he played with it almost every week until he was about seven And he did not want to lose his toy monkey，either. He slept next to the monkey every night when he was a child. My daughter was more understanding,although she also feLt sad to part toys.

我们已经从卧室里清理出了许多东西。我们决定每人出售5件不再使用的物品。一开始，我的儿子相当难过。虽然他很长时间不玩他的旧玩具了，但他仍想留着它们例如，自从他的4岁生日起，他就拥有了一套火车和铁路轨道的玩具。他几乎每周都玩这套玩具，一直玩到大约7岁时。他也不想失去他的玩具猴。在他还是个孩子时，每晚他都要紧靠着那只玩具猴睡觉。我的女儿比较懂事，尽管是去某玩具她也感到很难过。

As for me，I did not want to give up my football shirts，but,to be honest have not played for a while now.I am getting older,too!
