話說我幾幾乎就要放棄我家小棉襖的中文教育, 在心裏鬥爭的激烈呢, 麵上卻沒露出被我家小棉襖已經打敗的珠絲馬跡, 這當媽的也得找個台階下不是, 不然以後隻有被小人教育的份了…
一天下班到AFTER SCHOOL CENTER 接她, 女兒一見我就跑過來, 舉著一張田字格紙對我大聲說: 媽媽! 看我寫的中文!
我這一嚇不輕, 以為自己想這事想得夢症了, 大白天夢遊了, 偷偷掐了下腿: 哎呀, 痛死我也! 嗯, 還好, 不是大白天做夢. 我接過女兒的田字格紙, 果然, 女兒整整齊齊寫了10行生字!!! 看著這張紙, 我的淚都快下來了, 女兒還一個勁地問: 媽媽, 我寫得好不好? 給我什麽獎勵啊? 我連忙說: 寫得好, 寫得特別好, 媽媽一定給你獎勵!
開車回家, 我真是百感交際, 對女兒的突然轉變還有點不適應. 車上女兒一如既往地說個不停, 我心不在焉地哼哼著應著..突然, 女兒問: 媽媽, MR. Smith ask me to think a Chinese name for him, he likes flowers, I think 小花 is a good name for him..
什麽？那個大塊頭的笑眯眯的MR. Smith？他是女兒AFTER SCHOOL CENTER的體育老師，留著花白的山羊胡子，我接女兒晚了好幾次，他從沒生氣，總安慰我：ＴＡＫＥ IT EASY.
我問女兒: MR. Smith為啥讓你給取中文名字啊?
女兒說: oh, we are having a culture thing at after school, everybody say something about their own culture. I came from China, so I wrote a Chinese word for them.
我問: 寶貝, 你寫得啥字啊?
女兒很得意: 你教我寫家, 我記得了! So when it is my turn to show something about Chinese, I wrote 家 on the board, and some kids asked me how to remember so many strokes, I told them as you told me: Under the roof –(寶蓋頭),there are piglets, each of the family member has one piglet, so 2 grandma, 2 grandpa, daddy, mommy, me, seven piglets!. And MR. Smith saw what I wrote, he want me to write him more Chinese words, and guess what? he wants a Chinese name!
原來如此! 我靈機一動, 說: 看, 連老師都要向你學中文呢, 你可要好好學啊, 別教錯了哦!
女兒得意洋洋地說: 錯了is fine, he wouldn’t know!
我剛想教育她幾句, 女兒打斷我: 媽媽, Do you think小花 is a good name for MR. Smith? 我忍住笑說: 小花好象應該給女孩子吧?
女兒失望地說: I have been thinking for a long long long time, and finally got this one, besides, he told me he likes flowers!
我一聽連忙說：對， 對， 對， 小花多美啊！很好， 很好！
我私下裏咬下舌頭，罵自己：真笨啊！差一點把女兒要學中文的小芽芽掐掉了！
女兒一聽開心了：媽媽，小雲 is a good choice too, but since he likes flowers, so 小花 is better!
回到家，女兒說： 媽媽你cooking, I am reading Chinese 課文, If I were wrong, tell me!
知道什麽叫夢想成真嗎?
這就叫夢想成真!!!!
