He collected the plate and returned it to the sink. "Well then, that's perfect. Can you bringto the bookstore
today, Mommy? | want to buy sbooks about dinosaurs."
"Hmm?" | glanced at the TV and instantly understood when | saw the scientist on the discovery channel talking
about dinosaur fossils.
After giving it sthought, it seemed like | did not have anything planned for today, so | immediately agreed,
"Alright, letfinish eating." This taround, after | finished talking, Munchkin turned around again and tried
to cfor my glass of milk. I hurriedly lifted it up.
"I said, letfinish eating. | didn't ask you
to clean up after me." | gave him a little glare.
The little guy was not intimidated byat all. He just stood there upright and stared atwhile | finished
everything. There was no chance forto chew slowly with him watching me.
It was not until | handed him all the dishes that he stopped staring atand went back to the kitchen to clean
up.
Looking back, it seemed like | really had not done much in this period.
After sleeping in, Theo would already have prepared breakfast while all | had to do was eat as Munchkin did the

It would always be Caroline who cooked lunch at home, but Munchkin would sometimes help with house chores.
We would eat out for lunch most of the time, and we would sometimes help Caroline with dinner. However, the
two of them would usually just letrest.
All of a sudden, | realized that Munchkin had already beca little adult. It was shocking how fast the child
grew.
After breakfast, | changed my clothes and took Munchkin out.
When we arrived at the bookstore, Munchkin immediately ran toward the children's section, while | began to
wander around the bookstore. | looked at sbooks about handicrafts.
1 did not know if | was influenced by the thought I had this morning, but | could almost feel the housewife in me
as | subconsciously started to look at these things.
I recalled that when | was in school, | was
quite interested in handicrafts. | would use my spare tto make sfine jewelry and ornaments.
| remembered that at that time, Cassey and | would always cheer when we found little parts of jewelry in the
scraps that Mom brought home
It was clearly a pile of waste, but in our eyes, it was like a treasure.
After the two of us rummaged through the scraps, the pile of garbage would turn into fine ornaments.
Then, as we grew older and had more and more schoolwork, we had lesser tto do all of this.
| felt a bit sad thinking about it.
| put down the book and saw a DIY cottage set on the shelf next to it. This must be a marketing tactic.
Even if it was, | could not resist. | gladly walked into the trap and started choosing.
| picked up a pink cottage and

| tilted my head to see that it was Tina. Behind her was Fred, who was slowly walking toward me.
I was a little taken aback.
Fred cforward to explain, "The

"Yeah, | brought Munchkin here too. He suddenly watched a show on paleontology,
so he askedto bring him here to buy a book about dinosaurs. He's over there."
| pointed to the children's section.
Fred and Tina glanced over there.
"I'll go find Munchkin then, Aunt Wanda," said Tina before running away in a flash.
Fred and | could not help but laugh.
"This is perhaps the most precious thing about children. They can freely express whatever emotions they have. If
they like something, they don't try to hide it."
