John goes to MultiSport summer camp started from this Monday. However, Tim was a bit late to pick him up on his first day in MultiSport summer camp. John was upset so he told us he did not want to go to summer camp on Tuesday. In order to convince John, mommy told John...
Mom: John, 媽咪寫媽咪和爹地的電話給你,如果媽咪和爹地比較晚去接你,你不用害怕,你可以打電話給媽咪和爹地,這樣好不好?
John: 好吧!那這樣你要給我一台手機丫!否則我怎麼打電話給你.
Mom: @#$%^&!才五歲就跟我要手機, 長大還得了!

當陽陽三歲時, 在公司的補助下選擇了一所美國學校.
當初的想法是覺得這所學校離家近, 而且感覺學校的人對家長與小孩相當友善.
沒有選擇當地的小學, 是不想讓他從三歲就開始接受太多的壓力.
沒有選擇英國學校, 主要是感覺學校的人對亞洲家長與小孩相當不友善, 而且該校宣稱重視紀律(disciplines),三歲起小孩要自理一切的活動包括自己排隊拿菜,吃飯等. 似乎壓力也不小.

我的'婚姻存摺'是出嫁那天,媽媽遞到我手上的.
當時,我以為會是一大筆錢,打開一看發現只有1000元.
我用失望的眼神看著媽媽,媽媽卻笑著說:'這是我特意為你們辦理的'婚姻存摺',
以后每逢值得紀念的日子,都可以存一筆錢,等到老的時候,裡面除了錢,還有無限的幸福…'
當時,我對母親這份心思不以為然,倒是丈夫記在了心上.婚後沒多久,
他就先後存了兩個500元,一個是因為他升職了,第二個是因為我手術治愈出院.
當時我嘴上笑他無聊,其實心裡甜蜜無比,畢竟他把我的健康也當作一件讓他感到幸福的事.
沒過多久,我懷孕了,這一次,我足足往裡面存了2000元.但很快,我們開始有了爭吵和冷漠﹔
孩子出生帶來的快樂是短暫的,洗不完的尿布、喂不完的奶,進一步加劇了我們感情的惡化.
而那本婚姻存摺像被遺忘了,寂寞地躺在抽屜角落,上面的數字久未見漲.
我們鬧離婚的時候,媽媽說,你們先把存摺上面的錢花光了再離吧,雖然錢不多,但是你們共同的財產.
於是,我第一次取了1000元,然後拎著幾件心儀已久的衣服離開商場時,
我又回去對售貨小姐說:'對不起,我不買了,請你退回我剛才付給你的錢.'
也許當時的局面窘迫極了,但我腦海裡想到的是那1000元婚姻積蓄的來源:
他是個害羞的男人,但曾在街頭大聲地對我說'我愛你',我為此存下100元﹔
他記得我的生日、鞋號、密碼及最怕的事,我為此在生日那天存下300元﹔
他對女人有風度,也有距離,不給暗戀他的女下屬任何機會,我為此存下500元…啊,
這1000元裡就有這麼多的幸福積累,再看看婚姻存摺上的兩萬多元,我的眼睛忽然就有些濕潤起來.
晚上回到家,我把存摺交給他,說:'趕緊花吧,花光了好離婚.
第二天晚上,他把存摺遞到我手上,我打開一看,發現反而多了1000元.
他說:'那上面的每一元錢都記錄著我們走過的歷程,我第一次發覺原來是這樣的愛你,索性又存進了1000元.
我們從此又和好如初了.
還是媽媽說得對,以愛情的名義為婚姻開個戶口,把夫妻間所有快樂的、幸福的、浪漫的事,通通存進銀行.
有了這本日積月累的婚姻存摺,即使是再貧窮的婚姻，也決不害怕透支.

  It is about summer vacation period.   We arrange some summer camps for John.   Most summer camps will continue for 1 week.   John has more chance to face new environment and meet new friends.
  John is easy to cry in the morning at first separation from me as he know he need to face new environment and new friends by himself from now onward.
  Based on these 2 years experiences in American and local schools or summer camps.   I found some things interersting.
  If John stopp crying in the morning  when I say goodbye to him after the first day or the first few day.   It means John already adapts to new environment and the teachers may  take care their feeling well.

John recently keep asking us about how to spell letters of animals or  his  classmate name etc. 
At the beginning,  he liked to play with us by finding  a corresponding words of animal or his friends name from A to Z.  
Recently, he frequently ask me how to spell some words.  At first,  I spelled the words to him with patience everytime.   I found it took more and more time from me.
I don't want to stop his interest on doing that but I want to reduc my time on this.   

During meal time, John always take long time to complete it. 
One day, we asked him why you  always take such long time to finish your school lunch.
John: If I completed earlier, I don't have time to talk with my friend
The other day, John was late for finishing dinner.

We  used to tell  John that we make money for you to  go  to school and learn english.    He need to learn it well and come back to teach us.  
One day, When I was watching CNBC,  John asked me why I watched it.   I randomly replied that I am leamning english.   
One day I was watching HBO TV.  John came and played next to me.  After a while, 
John: Are you watch TV for learning English?

When John was 4 year old.  We played card by comparing which card number is bigger.  John thought we are playing game of pocket monster.
I also tought him picking red point (撿紅點)
Now, John is 5. 
I taught him playing big 2 (大老二).    I let him win to attract his interest at beginning.
