What did your children say that surprised you?

I remember that once when the fight with the child was about to end, I was about to hang up**, and the child suddenly said: "Dad, I wish you happiness." "Oops, I'll go. I was wondering what was going on in the head of this 4-year-old. What did your children say to you?

In the triviality and busyness of life, we often ignore those simple and sincere words, which come from the purest heart, but can often touch the softest part of our heart. A child's words are such a magical existence, sometimes innocent, sometimes full of deep meaning and shocking.

I remember it was an ordinary weekend afternoon, the sun was shining through the window in the living room, and I was busy tidying up the house, while my four-year-old daughter, Xiaoyue, was painting. Suddenly, she put down the colored pen in her hand, walked up to me, looked up at me with those bright eyes, and said seriously, "Mom, do you know? When I see you working hard, I think you're great. ”

At that moment, I was stunned. In my opinion, those housework are just trivial labor day after day, but in Xiaoyue's eyes, they have become a symbol of greatness in her eyes. Her words made me re-examine myself and made me understand that in the eyes of children, the contribution of parents is so important and great.

Another time, I took my son Xiaoyu to participate in a parent-child activity. One of the activities was for the children to express their gratitude to their parents. When it was Xiaoyu's turn, he stood on the stage, clenching his fists a little nervously, and then, he took a deep breath and said loudly: "I want to thank my parents because they not only gave me life, but also taught me how to love, how to share, how to be a kind person." I love you and always will love you! ”

Listening to his immature but determined voice, my eyes couldn't help but moisten. In the world of children, love is so pure and selfless, and I am deeply shocked by the selfless love they are willing to give their love to their parents without reservation.

A child's words are sometimes full of wisdom and insight. Once, I was chatting with my six-year-old niece, Xiaoya, and she suddenly asked me, "Auntie, why do people quarrel?" Don't they know that this will hurt each other? ”

I was stunned, the question was simple but profound. In our adult world, arguments and conflicts seem to be a way to solve problems, but in the eyes of children, they are so unnecessary and hurtful. Xiaoya's words made me reflect on whether we have forgotten to deal with conflicts in a gentler and more understanding way, and whether we have forgotten that true strength comes from inner peace and tolerance.

A child's words are like a mirror, reflecting the true face of our hearts. Sometimes, they show us our greatness and dedication; Sometimes, they make us feel the selflessness and depth of love; Sometimes, they make us reflect on our own actions and attitudes. These words, though simple, contain great power, and they can shake our hearts and minds and make us re-examine ourselves and the world.

So, when we are busy with the trivial things in life, we might as well stop and listen to our children's words. They may allow us to regain our inner peace and strength, and they may also make us more appreciative and grateful for every love and sacrifice in our lives. In this noisy and complex world, children's words are like a clear spring, which can cleanse our hearts and make us rediscover that innocence and kindness.
