Jason came back from school with a phone number on a paper. He said this is the number of his friend xxxx and he couldn’t wait to call him. He dialed the number by himself and talked to his friend (a boy) for a minute and hanged up. They talked in French. I didn’t understand what they were talking about but I was very happy to see Jason’s progress. This was the first time he called his friend by himself.
The second day before supper, a girl called. When I answered the phone, she just hesitated to say whom she was looking for (probably she was surprised to hear my voice not Jason’s). I felt strange to hear a little girl’s voice at the beginning, then realized it could be for Jason, so I passed to the phone to Jason. Jason was vey happy and mentioned the girl’s name immediately. This time they talked for quite long time, around 20 minutes. Again, I can’t understand what they were talking about as they spoke French. Just hear Jason mentioned “ma mama….mon papa…. Ma baby (sister)…..” seems she told the girl everything about us. After he hanged up, I asked Jason what the girl said. He said the girl said: “I have to go…” then byebye to him…. I asked him how the girl knew our phone number. He thought for a while and said she just knew. I believe Jason told her but seems Jason couldn’t explain to me well.
Not sure how Jason knew to exchange phone numbers among his classmates or friends. Anyway knowing how to dial the phone number and talk to his friends by phone is a big change for him. I’m so happy to see this. Is this a milestone in his life?
As for Janie, her recent big change is to say: “bu2 yao4” (don’t want) in Chinese. Initially she always says “hai2 yao4!” (want more) loudly. Everytime she says the word, I’m vey happy. As I know she won’t be hungry in daycare.:)
順順從學校回來後就從書包裏掏出一張紙,紙上寫著一個電話號碼,然後迫不及待就要打電話。我問他要打給誰,他說是他的朋友(一個男孩)。撥電話時還讓我確認一下撥得對不對。然後就聽他說找xxx,因他說法語,我也聽不懂他到底講了什麽。不過他們隻說了很短的時間就斷了。我問他什麽意思,他說他讓他的朋友明天幫他帶什麽東西到學校。
第二天晚飯時,有個奶聲奶氣的女孩打來電話,剛開始時我以為打錯了,因她也不提找誰,很快反應可能是找順順,便把電話給他。果不其然,順順接過後就說出了女孩的名字,然後倆人就聊了起來。這一聊時間可就長了,足足有20分鍾時間。因還是講法語,具體內容不知,就聽順順一會兒說“我媽媽。。。”,一會兒說“我爸爸。。。”一會兒有提“我babay(這是說妹妹)。。。”估計把我們家全說遍了。後來他撂了電話,我問他那個女孩跟他說什麽啦。“她說她要走了,就跟我說‘byebye'”。然後他就說不清了。
我猜可能學校老師教他們怎麽交換電話,怎麽打電話啦?不管怎麽樣,他知道主動打電話交流確實是他的一大進步,也算是人生的一個裏程碑吧,我當然很為他高興。當然對女孩給他打電話更是暗暗竊喜,看來順順的女孩緣還不錯。:)
還要提一下妮妮的進步:妮妮最近開始說“不要。” 以前總說:“還要!”每次聽她這麽一喊,我就很開心,我知道她在托兒所不會餓著了。
