大海啊故乡


Alan是一个很敏感(sensitive)的小孩,感受力很强的。

这是小时候,妈妈和我在傍晚散步时教我唱的歌。也许时因为后来没多久她就出国离开了我们,所以当我每次唱起《大海啊故乡》,心里就会莫名地伤感。这感觉我从来没对任何人讲过,一直放在心里深处。

前几天晚上睡觉时,我对Alan唱起这首歌。唱完一段,他说:“不唱啦。”

我问他:“为什么不唱呢?”

他回答:“唱大海会哭的。”

昨晚我故意问他:“妈妈唱大海好不好?”

“好。”

唱完一段以后,Alan说:“妈妈唱大海。唱大海会哭的。”说完就睡着了。

他能感受到我心里的东西。

wish us luck



alan's and my chinese visas will expire on 21st march, which is next wednesday.  i'll have to go to hong kong to renew my visa and the fastest processing time is 1 day.  but little chloe is still waiting for her passport.  And once we have our passport, we'll have to go to the exit and entry administration of guangdong to apply for an exit permit before i can take chloe with me to hong kong.  

if we can't get these done in time, chloe will have to stay with dad for 2 days and 1 night.  i'll squeeze some breast milk and store them in bottles, but that's still going to be pretty tough for the little baby girl...  wish wish we can get the passport and permit done in time.
