Epidemic Diary

Daughter, my mother is paying attention to the epidemic situation at the moment. The spring breeze is blowing outside the window. My mother clearly feels the vitality of spring. Regarding the Wuhan epidemic, my mother seems to see hope of victory.

When the Wuhan epidemic broke out, my mother felt an undercurrent in her heart. She was excited and lamented many times. She hated herself for being incompetent and failing to contribute to the compatriots in the motherland.

After many ideological struggles, my mother finally accepted her mediocrity and incompetence, and abided by her duty to contribute to the country by not going out, not visiting friends, and taking precautions.

But at this moment, my mother couldn't calm down. You seemed to be tired from playing and fell asleep quietly. I picked you up and the little man in your hand fell down. The moment your mother put you on the quilt, you suddenly opened your eyes and said to your mother, "Where's my little baby?" It fell on the quilt again, and you started to fumble with your eyes closed. Your mother quickly helped you find it, and just like that, the little face man was back in your hands, and then you fell asleep quietly.

My mother’s eyes were red and wet when she saw this. I don’t know how many times this has happened. Ever since you were sensible, you have always hoped that your father and mother could give you another brother or a baby. Sister, at first my mother thought you were just talking, but my father and I didn't take it seriously. As time went by, the joke became true.

You always say: Mom, I really want a baby, I can coax her. Then my father and I told you that if this happens, all the toys and snacks at home will belong to your younger brother or younger sister. You said it doesn't matter, I can give it to my brother or sister, just give me a bite occasionally.

Every time we hear this, my father and I feel very sad. How many times has your mother watched you caring for your doll as your own brother or sister, and you are always talking to yourself about the doll? Mom felt really bad.

Tonight, you held the little man in your hands as your little brother and sister. The feeling of being unable to put it down touched my mother’s heart. My father and I really hated ourselves for being so incompetent.

To tell you the truth, mom and dad really want to give you a younger brother or sister, not for anything else but for the future. When mom and dad are gone, they can leave you a relative in this world. , However, such a wish may be difficult to realize.

Daughter, my mother wants to tell you, I hope you can understand the difficulties of your father and mother when you grow up. I remember that at the beginning, my father and mother started a family in the form of a naked marriage. For so many years, my father and I struggled to support it. With this family, we have tried our best every step of the way, just to give our family a better life.

Now that my father and I have reached middle age, we are faced with the pressure of old people from above and young people from below. The responsibilities on our shoulders have become much heavier. Both financially and mentally, we have to bear the burden that you can’t bear. The pain of understanding.

But daughter, my mother hopes you can understand that you can live a good life even without younger brothers and sisters. Your heart is strong enough, you have a smart brain, and quick thinking. The important thing is that you are full of vitality inside. , have a desire for knowledge about this world, in comparison, these are your wealth.

And my father and I love you enough so that your heart is not lacking. Although mother rarely gives you material needs, spiritually, mother will do her best to give you what she can. All for you, I hope you can live a prosperous life.

I hope that one day you can understand your father and me when you read this passage written by your mother. The most romantic thing that my mother can think of is that when my father and I have gray hair on our temples and wrinkles on our cheeks, we can still see the smile on your face, the warm happiness, forever!
