今天是4月3日，星期六，天气晴
今天，女儿从学校放学回家，说只有一项（xiang4, measure word) 作业，就是画画，画一张画，我的梦想(meng4xiang3, wishful thinking)。画完后，她把画给我，妈妈请你拍照(pai1zhao4, take photo)，然后发(fa1, to send to)给老师吧。她很开心, 看起来很喜欢那张画。我想她可能画了医生，因为她一直说长大以后要做一个医生。结果一看，根本不是医生，而是一片大海。
海上有一只美人鱼。公主的身体，鱼的尾巴，颜色很漂亮。海边还有一座小岛，岛上有一棵大树，海里画了不少的鱼，各种各样的。海底呢，还有一个箱子，里面有宝石（bao3shi1, precious stone）。
我觉得很奇怪，不知道她画了什么梦想。我问她说：老师说要把自己的梦想画下来，从这幅画里，我看不出你的梦想呀？然后，她指着(zhi3 zhe, to point to)那只小小的美人鱼说：这就是我的梦想。
“什么？你的梦想是做一只美人鱼吗？”我有点惊讶呀：“为什么呀？”
女儿看着我说：“因为美人鱼不用每天洗头和洗澡呀！”
可是你要怎么和老师说呢？这可是作业！
我哭笑不得(ku1 xiao4 bu4 de, find sth. both funny and annoying)，你就这么不喜欢洗头和洗澡呀？但是你的想法真的是好可爱！好吧，真的是我自己亲生的，好像我小时候也不喜欢刷牙和洗脸。
那么，你小时候有没有什么特别可爱的事情呢？
