Mom's Here 媽媽來了
One evening I drove my husband's car to the shopping mall.On my return, I noticed that how dusty the outside of his car was and cleaned it up a bit.When I finally entered the house, I called out.'The woman who loves you the most in the world just cleaned your headlights and windshield.'
一天晚上我開著丈夫的車去購物,回來后發現車身沾滿灰塵,于是擦洗了一陣。當我終于走進屋里時大聲喊:“世界上最愛你的女人剛擦洗了你的車燈和擋風玻璃。”
My husband looked up and said, 'Mom's here'
我丈夫抬頭看了看,說:“媽媽來了?”
