I usually get up at 5:00. I make coffee, go to my desk and work. When my boys get up, I’m theirs. I follow the min to the kitchen and make them breakfast. While they’re eating, I make their lunch, pick out their school clothes and get the little one dressed.
My wife takes them to school. I bring them home. I am not the only father at the school gate. The boys and I walk the 12 blocks home unless the weather is terrible. Then we take the subway. I remind them of looking out, like an animal looking after their babies.
At home, they play on the computer and the little one will draw, sometimes for hours. When their mother comes home, they run to her. She has been in the official day and tired, but her attention is all on them.
I have made dinner. We sit down and eat together. After they do their homework, Karen takes them to bed. I listen to the noise of the boys’ and their mother’s voice.
One afternoon when we were on the way home from school, the boys and I stopped at the clothing store. The saleswoman looked at the boys and said to me in a low voice, “You’re Mr. Mom, aren’t you?” I felt very angry. I’m not Mr. Mom. That’s not how I look at myself.

Hi Vince,It's been a while since we got in touch last time. How has your semester(学期)been?I want to send you an email to let you know how things have been going during my semester abroad here in Malaga, Spain(西班牙). I've already been here for several weeks, and I feel like I am finally adapting (适应)to the culture. I'm also speaking the language better.I arrived here on September 1st. The weather has been very nice. Even though it's October, it's still rather sunny and warm. In fact, I went to the beach and swam in the Mediterranean Sea(地中海)earlier today.I am living with a very welcoming host family. I have my own private bedroom. We eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner together. On Sundays, we have a big home- cooked paella for lunch. In Spain, lunch is usually the biggest meal of the day. It's also very common for the people to take a midday nap right after a big meal. I am actually just waking up from my nap right now!On weekdays, I take classes at the local university. There, I met several native(本国的)Spanish speakers. They have been very kind and patient with me. At first, it I was difficult for me to understand their Spanish, but now I understand most of our conversations. They say that my Spanish has improved a lot since we first met. Now, I am more confident (自信的)to use the language in other places like stores and restaurants.I am so glad that I decided to spend the semester here in Spain. Tomorrow, October 12th, is Spain's National Day. We will have a five-day holiday. A group of my friends and I are going to travel to France for four days. It's so easy and inexpensive to travel internationally in Europe. I love it!I look forward to hearing from you soon. Do stay in touch more often. Perhaps you could even come to visit!

How do you go to school every day?By bike or on foot?Maybe you can try a new way﹣taking a S'Cool Bus.
The S'Cool Bus is also called the bike bus.It was invented in the bike kingdom﹣the Netherlands.It is all about green lifestyle,sport and sharing.It's interesting for kids to ride the bus together to go to school.
Also,it is very safe.The bike bus has a driver and eleven seats for kids.Each one has a helmet(头盔) and safety belt(安全带).There is also a roof on the bus.It can be used on hot days or rainy days to make kids feel comfortable.
