Mother's Day 2010 母親節快樂.

There are 2 holidays that I have excuse don't need to do dishes or cooking yearly: Mother's Day and my birthday. This year on Mother's Day, Xander woke up early and made us Xander's famous scramble eggs + toasts with apple juice. He even cleaned the dishes. We've been trying cooking breakfast several times and today I can mark off this assignment from his cub scout requirements.

At church, all sisters received a flower at the end of the sacrament and even a strawberry pond cake at the end of the meeting. We sure got special treatments this day.

每年有2個節日我有正當的理由不用煮飯及洗碗: 母親節和我的生日. 今年母親節較特別的是傑升幫我做早餐. 因為他參加了幼童軍, 其中一個要求項目是幫家人準備一頓飯及整理碗盤. 我們已經練習了很多次, 所以今天我幫他把東西都拿出來, 他就自己打蛋及煮蛋. 煮的很好吃呢.他也慢慢的把髒盤子沖乾淨放進洗碗機裡.好感動哦. 嗯,這項要求過關.

在教會時, 每個成年的女士都收到一朵花, 而在最後的15分鐘男士們還招待我們吃草莓蛋糕. 真是皇后般的享受.

Boys BBQ some baby back ribs, made cole slow and creamy potato salad. Dinner was great and Khai volunteered to clean the dishes. The royal treatments will be disappered after mid night. Happy Mother's Day.

當我午睡時, 肖恩和小朋友們準備了生菜沙拉, 馬鈴薯泥和烤肋排. 我們吃的好高興. 煒勳飯後幫我們洗碗. 女王般的待遇將於午夜12點消失. 祝大家母親節快樂.

Chinese school speech contest

This year Xander and Khai worked very hard as usual for the speech contest. Xander designed his own speech and gestures. I helped Khai with his content but was surprised to find out that he still remembers the colors in Chinese several weeks after the contest. Both boys had worked very hard although they didn't win any trophies, but we are still very proud of them.

今年的中文演講比賽, 兄弟倆照例還是很認真的練習. 傑升自己編稿及想動作. 我則必須幫煒勳想內容,可是煒勳也有幫忙加點子. 比賽當天,傑升那組的小朋友實力實在太強了, 所以他沒有拿到大奬杯. 可是他們都盡力了,這樣就夠了. 那弟弟講旳是顏色, 可是我發現幾個禮拜後他竟然還記得顏色.(以前講中文時,他都搞不清楚什麼是什麼顏色.) 所以每次比賽小朋友都有進步, 請掌聲鼓勵.


Xander's topic: Crab looks for a new home.

"Crab is looking for a new home. He found a big house but a shark came out and warned him to leave. The crab found a medium house but a big fish came out threatening to smash him into crab meat. The crab then found a small house but a school of small fish came out and claimed that it's their property. The crab finally found a house that suits him and had many babies later."

傑升的題目:螃蟹找新家.


Khai's topic: Colors.

" My hair is black, my eyes are black, my lips are red, my teeth are white, my shirt is green and my pants are blue. I can watch traffic lights. I stop at red lights, walk on green lights and be cautious at yellow lights. I like blue because it makes me feel so comfortable."

煒勳的題目: 顏色.
"我的頭髮是黑色, 我的眼睛是黑色, 我的嘴吧是紅色, 我的牙齒是白色. 我的衣服是綠色, 我的褲子是藍色. 我會看紅綠燈. 紅燈的時候要停,綠燈的時候要走. 黃燈的時候要左看右看. 我最喜歡的顏色是藍色因為我覺得好舒服."
