Since I became a mother, 身为人母之后 I cannot remember the last time I had quality time for myself 我已经记不得上一次享受一个人的时间是什么时候了... Even my simple hobby of reading a book was already a thing of the past. 甚至读书这样简简单单的爱好也已经成为了往事 All my time evolved in taking care of the family, 我的所有时间都用在家事上了 my kids, 养育孩子 my husband, 照顾丈夫 doing the house chores 做家务 and of course working to earn a living. 当然，还有上班赚钱养家 Whenever I get to be invited 每次我受到邀请 by my colleagues to go out after work, 同事们约我下班去聚会 I politely declined 我只能礼貌的拒绝 telling them the truth that 坦言相告 I have a family to take care after work. 我下班后还要回去照顾家人 Not to mention the tons of laundry, 更不提回家还有成堆的衣服要洗errands各种杂事要做 and other house chores waiting for me. 还有一大堆家务在等着我 Well, I guess that is all part of motherhood. 好吧，我想这些都是一个母亲生活的组成部分 |
