我的童年除了看書還是看書,最大的樂趣就是看書,大部分的時間也用來看書。這樣做的好處就是懂得了很多有趣的知識,壞處就是因為缺乏戶外的活動,膽子越變越小,對於現實生活中很多事情都缺乏勇氣去探索,這樣的後果就是對事物的理解感性偏多理性缺乏。
知道自己的很多缺點其實是很不適合言傳身教的,幸好我有個最大的優點,我不會覺得在孩子面前承認自己的不足是難為情的事情,我會明確的告訴孩子,作為媽媽的我那些缺點是他不可以學的。其中缺乏探索新事物的精神我放在了首要的位置。因為我覺得男孩子的優秀品質中一定需要勇敢這一點,特別是對於自己未知不了解的事情,要勇於去嘗試和探索,也許探索的最終的結果不盡如人意,甚至會是一次次的失敗,但是每一次失敗都是一次可貴的經驗積累,起碼知道了這樣做是行不通的。
也許是我對兒子從小就灌輸這樣的觀點,所以兒子保持了旺盛的嘗試精神,最可貴的是在不斷嘗試新事物失敗后他依舊可以保持樂觀的精神。這個特性也讓兒子到了美國后很快的適應了美國的教育方式,並且他這一特性在學校得到了老師的鼓勵和支持,甚至在這次小學畢業典禮上拿到了全校最高獎勵,校長在台上介紹他的時候,就著重說了他是一位勇於嘗試新事物並且面對困難會知難而上,不氣餒不怕面對失敗的人。那一刻我坐在台下真的有點熱淚盈眶的感覺,我想也許我無意中教會了兒子美國精神中最可貴的一點——勇於嘗試新事物才會發現新世界。

Three little fish
In the blue ocean, there lived three little fish. One named Jax. He was very brave. Another one Lucky. She was a coward. Bob was the third fish. He was very lazy.
One day, the three little fish were talking about the world. Lucky said ,「I think the world is full of water, Seaweeds, sea stars and fish.」 Jax and Bob started to argue. Bob said,「I agree .」 Jax said,「I disagree.」Jax said ,「I will go to see if what you said is right. will you come with me?」 Lucky said,「I will not, because it is too scary .」 Bob said,「I will not, because it wastes too much energy.」 Jax said,「Ok, then, I』ll go by myself.」
Then he swam as fast as he could. He jumped out of the water with all his energy. He saw the bright big sun and the beautiful blue sky. Then he fell back to the water. He jumped up again. This time he saw trees and houses, but he fall down again . The last time he jumped he saw a lot of things that were amazing.
Then he went back and told his friends what he saw. He said,「If you try new things, you can see a new world. 」
