我終於明白為甚麼大家那麼想要小孩了。
I finally realized why most of us want kids that badly.
最近覺得靈感枯竭時，看看我身邊的小方，這是個喜歡閱讀和收明信片的小孩，大人覺得沒興趣的主題，他總是興致盎然，或者大人覺得很愚蠢的話，他卻認為很有創意。於是我開始想一堆有的沒有的鬼點子，因為我知道不管我說甚麼，他都會全心接受。
When I felt that there weren’t many active brain cells left in my head a few weeks ago, I turned to Von—this is a kid who loves reading and receiving postcards. He hardly dismisses a book as boring while most adults can tell if they are interested in a subject within three seconds. Or he sees sparks of creativity in what adults consider silly. Thus, it occurred to me to brainstorm as many crazy ideas as possible because I know he’ll embrace whatever I say.
沒有創意了嗎？現在我規定自己每天早上起床要想一個很特別的點子，在出門前用五到十分鐘的時間畫在空白明信片上寄給小方，漸漸地，我好像也沒自己想得那麼腦汁乾枯了。
Out of creativity? I make it a rule to squeeze out a very special idea after I get up every morning. I’ll have to draw a quick picture and send it to Von before leaving for work. Little by little, I am not that dull as I thought I was.
昨天去圖書館的路上想到我們前兩個月在公園的野餐畫面，哪一天我們也在飛機上野餐吧，還可以打開窗吹吹風喔！歡迎我們的新成員小楷！
Yesterday on my way to the library, the image of our picnicking together in the park flitted before my eyes. Well, what about having afternoon tea one day on an airplane? With the windows open! Also, welcome our new member Kai!
