吾家有女初長成

100年10月19日星期四天氣怪(早上由花蓮出發到機場搭飛機,驚覺一陣涼意,趕緊回家換長袖及外套,心想:台北一定更冷,出松山機場...ㄣ!!居然艷陽高照,進入台灣護理學會其他委員們不解"我為什麼穿這麼多???)
晚上搭1730的飛機回花蓮(又與棒球好手陳致遠的大嫂團秀琴同機),先到學校參加"程慧娟醫師主講之性別教育"班會活動...返家之後

女兒:媽咪告訴你一個很驚爆的事ㄡ!!你不要嚇到

老媽:什麼事??

女兒:它來了

老媽:確定來了?今天?現在呢?

哈哈哈!!當媽的恐懼與期待中於在今天100年10月19日晚上8點發生了

該要大肆慶祝一下

女兒還在長大成人的"驚喜"與異於同學的"羞赧"的複雜情緒中

一直問我

"要不要告訴柔玲老師"

一再強調

"不要告訴家裡的外國人"

感謝主  家人平安與順利成長

我家有人長大了

A 18 y/o nice franch boy stay with us...Matthias Berger

My 2nd son, Tony, goes to New York being a Youth Exchange Student for 2011-2012.
Matthias as an the Exchange one, who will stay with us for one year.
He is quiet with good manner, only heartless sometime.
It is quiet difficult being a suitable host family. There are huge gap between cultural differences.
I really wish Matthias could fit into life here, or we could treat him as "real" family.  In a nature way without barriers, or too much polite considerations

Anyway, life is a learning process, isn't it?
