春末的夜裡，小男孩瑞瑞和媽媽咪咪來看我，而雙胞胎哥哥在車上睡覺，瑞瑞睡不著，因為怕做惡夢。
On a spring night, Ray comes to visit me with his mom Mimi, while his twin brother sleeps in the car. Ray can't sleep because he is afraid of having nightmares.
瑞瑞問我：「汪達阿姨，你讀一年級的時候有夢想嗎？」我搖搖頭，很可惜地說沒有。
瑞瑞說：「我想當歌手。」咪咪鼓勵瑞瑞唱一曲。於是我們在深夜裡開了盡興的小型演唱會。
媽媽繼續說兩兄弟的趣事，例如下田體驗農耕生活時，當其他孩子雙腳深陷於泥濘當中，精力過盛的兩人追著鴉子跑。
Ray asks me, "Auntie Wanda, did you have a dream when you were in first grade?" Unfortunately, I didn't. I felt pity for not being able to give a more creative answer.
Ray goes on to say, "I want to be a singer."
Mimi encourages Ray to sing, and thus starts our late-night mini-concert.
Mimi tells me more anecdotes about the two brothers. For example, as the other kids panicked, the boys got so carried away when experiencing farming that they started to chase after the ducks.
好寧靜又好有活力的春夜啊！
What a peaceful and energetic spring night!
