“How about I take you to Uncle Lewis’s company, and you stay with Uncle Lewis in the company while I go to your aunt Stone’s house to see the baby?” Serenity teased Sonny.
Sonny immediately refused, “I want to follow you to see the baby.”
Soon, he asked again, “Auntie, when can the baby play with me? Every time I go to Mrs. Stone’s house to see him, he is always sleeping or crying. I can’t coax him when he cries. Why is he always crying?”
Serenity led him to the car, the bodyguard opened the door, and she hugged Sonny and got into the car.
After sitting down, she replied, “The baby is like this. He can’t speak yet. When he is hungry, has diarrhea, or is thirsty, he is unable to express himself verbally. He can only cry. When he cries, the adults will pay attention to him and determine why he is crying.
You were like that when you were a child. When you were as big as a baby, you were even more difficult to take care of than a baby.”
Serenity pinched Sonny’s little face and said, “Did you think you would be as big as you are now when you were born? You also grew up little by little.”
Sonny looked very curious. “Was it like that when I was a child? I don’t even remember. Auntie, why can’t I remember what happened when I was a child now?”
Serenity said, “Babies have very poor memories. After ten or eight years, you may have completely forgotten everything you have experienced now.”
She took Sonny’s small schoolbag, opened it, and looked through the books sent back today.
Sonny was only three and a half years old. In a small class, the teacher would teach them to read a book, but it was mainly for fun. A book would be sent back to the children every day for them to read, but they had not yet written.
Because Liberty had taught him how, Sonny was able to write numbers and recognize some characters.
Since he had to attend classes and practice martial arts at the martial arts school on weekends, Liberty wanted to arrange other interest classes for him when he was older.
Which of today’s children doesn’t know how to have some talent?
