Especially the children read it once and once, in the book, the father is clumsy and interesting, the son is clever and naughty, the children read the book usually laugh loudly. The book is humorous and peaceful.
In fact, the humorous is in every family, but we can’t find it, we always see things with fastidious eye. We complain everything, the children’s exam score, nitpick food, bad temper and so on. In our heard, we hope to hold the humorous and peaceful relation like the book “Father and Son”, so the amusing TV program attracts many people. Now, I will write some things about my son with relax tone and calm mood.
My son was born on June 14, 2004, a sunny day. My wife gave birth to my son after twelve hours pain, thanks to the god, my son was very healthy. Here, I must thanks to my wife too, she is a great mother, like all the mothers, they bring the life to the world. My son was born at Xiamen Zhongshan hospital, my wife stayed in the hospital for three days, I was too excited to my son’s coming, so that I can’t fall asleep for two night, I carried my son in breast disregard he was wake or sleep, I phone everybody who were my friends or my colleagues, I told them I was a father from now on. The another mother lived in the same room with my wife asked my wife: “ Are your husband a head contractor?” My wife: “ Why do you think he is a head contractor?” The mother: “so many telephones, so many friends.” Ha,Ha. My wife laugh at me: “ the head contractor, a very making money job.”
My son’s appearance is very like me. One day, I bring my son to give a injection with my wife, there were a lot of people in the diagnosis room, we must line up to wait the doctor, there were two mothers sitting near the line, talking with each other in a low sound, then smiled gently and looked at us, we were feeling strange, then my wife went to them and asked: “ why do you laugh so happy?”They answered: “you see that father and son is so like, they like print from one model.”My wife look through they point, then see my son and me, andlaughed with them. My son was very like me, especially the head, it isn’t round, it is ellipse, my wife carried my son in the breast and seed him once and once, then said: “ The apple is sweeter with bad shape, my son’s head with a askew shape will be more clever.”Or another word, “ The clever head cell crowd together and make the head askew.”
My son was very like to explain something when he was four or five years, he would ask me: “ Do you know it?” I answered: “ No, I don’t know.” Then he would explain it to you with a un-normal word, he told me lots of things, like the day and night, he told me: “The sun explodes in the night, then become the moon and the stars. In the day, the moon and the stars get together again and becomes into the sun.” My son never seed the growth of the peanut, so he believed the peanut is growing up on the tree like apple. My wife’s mother told him once and once about the growth of the peanut, but he didn’t believe her, because he think he was clever than his grandmother, the every peanut shell has a cord which can connect with the tree, but his grandmother can’t explain clearly to him about why the peanut grow in the soil. Then my mother only found a pot, and planted the peanut to prove the fact that the peanut were growing in the soil.
My son can do something for us, but he want some pay.One day, my wife let my son to buy the breakfast for us, he was very happy to do it, went out home with good mood and relax step, we wait at home with nervous mind, this was the first time that my son to do something outside. After about ten minutes, my son was back with nothing, my wife asked him: “where is the food?”My son: “I went to several stores, but not find the food that I loved. So I haven’t buy anything.”Then he gave the money back to my wife, my wife count it, which was four yuan less. Then asked my son: “where is the other four yuan?”My son answered: “ That is I get the pay two yuan when I went to buy the food, and get the other two yuan when I went back home. In fact, I can gain another yuan if I buy the food and carried it back home, but I didn’t do it, so I give up it.”We smiled with speechless, probably my son never think about how to buy the food, only think about how to gain the money.
When you come to my home, you can take many things from my home, but not including the newspaper, do you feel strange, oh, no, the owner of the newspaper is my son. The newspaper will be sell, and the money belongs to my son, which is his pocket money, so my son protect the newspaper as protect his money. I find that the children are more clever than our childhood, or in another word, they are more selfish.
Of course, my son has much defects, I was angry at them, when I cry loudly at my son, my wife would said: “ Do you forget the excited mood and the happy when the son was born.”He likes to play the computer game, watch TV, read the cartoon book instead of the classic book. I told him he must do this, not that. He said he know the reason but can’t do it like what I told. His school study is poor, he get a low score in the examination. He like make jokes with his classmates, also he quarrel with his classmates occasionally. He like football and spend more time to play football, although I know the football is not a bad thing, but he forgets the study while he play the football. I told him he should spend less time on playing football and more time to study, he can’t understand me. We ague at home, he is more angry than me.
My son is not a perfect boy, he is naughty and lively. I hope he can grow up into a useful person in the future, here, I send my wish. I forget many things about my son, my wife can remember some story about him, the above little story was reminded by my wife.
