Christian the author

He was lying in my bed, to my right, while Calista lay to my left (heaven!). The two of them competed to give me loud kisses over my arm and face as I luxuriated in the moment.

A while later, the before-sleep thoughts came..

“Mama, when I grow up, I want to write stories and became an author.. then the book cover will read ‘Author Christian W’.”

I grinned brightly and made encouraging comments about how proud I would be of him and going on my typical Asia-mum nag on how this is the reason we need to learn how to read and write and spell.

And thus proceeded his first story

“mama, I know.. i have a story..the title is ‘the two scary monsters’.

It will start, ‘the two scary monsters were big. they ate people and wanted to come into our house. We hid in our room and locked the door. They tried to come in but we kept quiet. After a long long long time they went away and we opened our doors to check… .. .. ..”

Me: wait wait let’s write the story tomorrow ok, we can put it into a book.

Ch: Then I can give my book out to everybody..and everybody can read! It doesn’t matter if i forget this right, I can always think up of another story.

Me: ^_^
