#日记#

        I am a housewife, though my daily life is extremely monotonous, I try to make myself enriching. Especially when I became a mother, I would like to be a role model for my son. In the case of parents, the children are mirrors, where he can see you better, you can also see your deficiencies. English is my favorite subject, and I've always wanted to continue to study in adult. Recently, I started using my spare time to read the original English book. This is the fifth day, I hope I can keep reading.
