乾脆我自己生啦! I'll Just Do It By Myself Then!

我愛妳,媽媽!
I love you, Mama!


那年,女兒不滿三歲,曾經多次要我給她生個小baby.

有一天,我問她,妳要媽媽給妳生個妹妹嗎? 她說好。 我又問她,生個弟弟可以嗎?她說,也可以。

我再追問,那妳到底要媽媽給妳生個弟弟呢?還是生個妹妹呢?

小不點兒一時答不上來,竟給我來了這麼一句:

「好了,媽媽,不要再問了.....乾脆,我自己來生啦!」


When my daughter was barely three years old, she asked me to give her a baby sibling.

One day I tried to get an answer from her whether she would prefer a baby girl or a baby boy.

After being asked several times in a row, my little daughter replied,

"All right, Mama, stop asking me, " she said, " I'll just go ahead give birth to a baby by myself then!"
