儿子的第一封“情书”
昨晚和儿子上完钢琴课,回到家,妈妈正在检查儿子的书包。看到儿子进门,妈妈说:“小毛,你有一封信”。
儿子头都没抬,回答:“I know. It's from Grace。”
爸爸插上一句:“Grace? Then, it is a love letter!”
“No. It's just an elephant. She made in the class and gave to me.”
妈妈接着说:“妈妈没打开。你自己拆开看吧。”
儿子试了一下,求妈妈:“Mommy, please open for me. I don't want to break the sticker.”
妈妈打开了,还真是一头剪出来的纸象呢。不过,上面有几行字,妈妈念出来:
“You lissn (listen?)
good XXXX(儿子的英文名)
I love you
get some way to go”
“Are you going to tell me that it's not a love letter? She said ‘I love you’.”
妈妈爸爸一起起哄,儿子不好意思,只好逃到另一房间了。
My son's first girlfriend
Background:
My son used
to have a "girlfriend", a neighbor's daughter. The 2 had claimed they
were boyfriend/girlfriend to each other for a long time until last
sunday when I took them home from chinese school. When I teased them,
the girl said that they were not boyfriend/girlfriend because
boyfriend/girlfriend are special. My son agreed that they were just
friends.
This morning, on breakfast table, my son announced that he had a girlfriend in school.
Mom: "Who is this girl?"
Son: "Anna."
Dad: "How do you know she is your girlfriend?"
Son: "She chases me all the time."
I did not get it, mistakenly thought "She kisses me all the time".
"What? kiss you all the tiime?" I asked.
Daughter: "Hahaha...."
Son: "No. Kissing is not allowed. She follows me all the time."
Dad:" I see. Why is kissing not allowed?"
Son:" Because it passes germ and diseases."
Dad:" That's true. So treat the girl nicely. No kiss is ok. You can help her if she needs, right?"
Son: "Of course."
......
Seems he's learning a lot in school, huh.
