My son was born in May 2009, by now he is six and a half years old. In the six and a half years, my family has been full of laughter and happiness because of the birth of my son. My father and mother also love their grandson very much. When my wife and I went to work, they would take care of their grandson. When my wife and I were off duty and went back home, my whole family would reunited again and have a happy time.

When my son was about one year old, on Saturdays and Sundays, my wife and I would teach him to distinguish different colors and different animals and different objects such as ship, car, bike and so on.

When my son started to speak, we would teach him to speak “dad, mom, grandpa, grandma, aunt” in Chinese. Sometimes, he could not speak the character clearly, thus he always made us burst into laughter.

When he was almost two years old, he could walk by himself and I bought a basketball and a football for him. Also, he could kick the ball and chase it.

When he was two and a half years old, my parents send him to a kindergarten. At first, he always cried in the earliest several days. My parents had to accompany him in his classroom. After he was familiar with the class, he could play with his little friends. Two week later, he can stay at his classroom independently. Also, he increased his vocabulary month after month. His teacher would teach the class a song and he would sang the song for his grandparents at home. After he finished a song, my parents would applaud for his brave performance. At the Children’s day every year, the kindergarten would have a party and the children in the kindergarten would sing and dance in a platform to celebrate it. The parents would be invited to the party and to be audience and be happy to see their kids’ progress.

After my son graduated from kindergarten, he came to primary school last September. At primary school, he has all kind of lessons and the Chinese, math and English are the main courses. He would do his homework every day and recite English words. He can follow me to read his English textbook and my son and I study English together.

I thank God for sending me a lovely and healthy son and I pray that please God send me another healthy and lovely son too. The happiness of a father is a life long experience.
