Phoenix City Fengming: My daughter has come to the United States to visit relatives for the second time. Starting from the beginning of the year, my daughter has received good news on the phone, and she is planning to bring her son to visit relatives in the United States during the children's summer vacation this summer. We, as husband and wife, are very happy and look forward to the time passing by quickly. Finally, at the end of July, mother and son flew to the United States to reunite with our family. Together with our son's family, a total of eight people gathered together. His husband later reunited with us. So far, two families with two sons and a daughter have reunited in the United States. The family members are reunited happily. It feels like home! We took many family photos and left precious memories. But with reunion comes separation. They came and left in a hurry. Three weeks passed by in a flash, and they have now flown back to their home in China. Looking back, Youru had a sweet dream. The house was empty. If it was a big house, there were only my husband and me. During the day, my husband left for work early in the morning, and I was the only one facing an empty house. There is a great sense of loss. When I pull myself out of my thoughts and want to write something, I feel unable to do so. I was alone at home, wandering back and forth with nothing to do. After a few days of adjustment, I was able to calm down and do some things. This time, my daughter brought her son Kevin to visit relatives in the United States. She wanted to use three weeks to have Kevin go to a summer camp to practice English with American children and improve Kevin's English speaking skills. But he came a little late. The primary and secondary schools here have all started school. Without this kind of summer camp, the plan to practice English was ruined. It is not easy for a teenage child to stay at home every day. Kevin has a good personality and is easy to get along with others. He loves sports and playing games. This is probably a common hobby of modern children. It is difficult to control it by yourself and must be restricted and supervised by relatives and friends around you. Kevin is no exception. My daughter gave Kevin rules on how many English words he should learn every day, how long he should play table tennis, how long he should play games, etc. Kevin could basically complete it as planned. In addition to three meals a day, I had to play table tennis with Kevin twice every day. It was hard to get used to playing with Kevin at first. His playing style and approach were completely different from my husband. First of all, his serving posture is weird. The ball he serves spins so hard that the racket flies out as soon as he touches it. Kevin was very proud that neither of us (my husband and I) could catch his irregular top spin, back spin, left spin and right spin. However, it didn't take long for me to gradually learn the rules of his serve and various spins, and he no longer looked down upon me when I played with him. The two of us have two ball competitions every day. You come and I don't give in to each other. The fight is inseparable, with no winner or loser. We played a drawer of balls every game, and there were more than 300 balls in the drawer. We were both sweating profusely. Although this exercise is already a very strong physical activity for me, Kevin took a break after a while and went to play a sport played on TV. He was really energetic and had endless strength. I really envy him. In order to make Kevin's life in the United States less monotonous and more meaningful, in addition to the sports at home, her mother took him to an amusement park to swim, and then took him to a sports field to play badminton. His mother was so exhausted that he had nothing to do. His arrival brought us great vitality, and the home was filled with happy laughter and laughter. It felt so good to be at home! Although my daughter's husband is here this time, he still can't let go of the domestic company matters. During the day, I was flying back and forth with business trips, and at night I had to communicate with people in China to arrange work. I couldn't rest for a few hours a day. I was really too busy and tired, and my body was in a sub-healthy state. . My daughter’s work in China also involves flying back and forth, and sometimes both husband and wife are on business trips. Thanks to the father-in-law and mother-in-law, they can take care of the children at home. It’s really not easy for young people today. If you want to succeed in your career, you have to work harder and pay more than others. Seeing them (her) working so hard and tired, it really hurts my eyes and hurts my heart. Thank God! Although he (she) is very hard and tired, with God’s protection, they all work smoothly and can support their own happy family!
