儿子收到的第一封“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。
