親愛的，6個孩子就拜托你了

自從二胎政策放開以來，很多家庭都又增添了一個小寶貝。兩個孩子，似乎成了每個家庭的標配。當然，二胎也必然會讓很多父母卻步，比如沒有精力去照顧兩個孩子。我們今天要給大家分享一位母親，她有6個孩子，你可以想象這樣的生活嗎？

更令人驚訝的是，這位名叫Meghan Maza Oeser美國媽媽居然給丈夫留下一封滿載“育兒建議”的信，然后和閨蜜來了一場說走就走的旅行。

詞組

go over復習，重溫；仔細檢查；轉(zhuǎn)變；潤色
embark on從事，著手；登上船
short lived短暫的；短壽命的
school season返校季
pissed off生氣，不高興；憤怒
fresh out of剛用完，剛賣掉

下面就是她的這封信的內(nèi)容，我們一起來摘錄部分看一下：

首先，先是一段鋪墊

Dearest Husband, I'm writing this to you out of love, not fear. I wanted to go over a few things with you before you embark on this weekend alone ... with the others.
親愛的老公，我給你寫這封信是出于愛，而不是恐懼。我想在你這周末獨自在家看孩子之前提醒你幾件事。

爸爸下班回家是這樣的

The others will hug, jump, and for the most part, be pretty excited to see you. This will be short lived...I promise. School season or not ... this is also known as hell hour.
孩子們在家會互相擁抱，蹦蹦跳跳，當然，他們會很高興看見你。這很短暫，我敢保證。有點像返校季，這也是我常說的地獄時間。

女孩子的戰(zhàn)爭是這樣的

It's most likely that Quinn will be pissed off about Penny wearing her Elsa dress, and Penny equally pissed off because Quinn will ONLY refer to her as Anna.
通常Quinn會因為Penny穿著她的Elsa連衣裙而生氣，Penny同樣生氣，因為Quinn只會把她稱為Anna。

吃飯的時候是這樣的

Bailey will want pizza, while Harper will ask for hot dogs. Quinn will cry when you say the word hot dog, and will insist on mac n cheese (but not the orange kind or the white kind, but the purple kind). We'll be fresh out of the purple kind, so she'll then ask for toast. You'll already have started making mac n cheese for Penny, but since she heard Quinn ask for toast, she'll also want that toast.
Bailey想吃披薩，而Harper要吃熱狗。當你說熱狗這個詞時，Quinn會哭，她堅持吃通心粉（不是橙色或白色，而是紫色）。我們紫色的剛吃完，她會要吃吐司。你已經(jīng)開始為Penny做通心粉了，但是因為她聽到Quinn要吃吐司，所以她也想要吐司。

睡覺的時候是這樣的

Quinn, Harper, and Bailey will go down seamlessly. Just wait. As they lie in their beds, they'll then realize that their tiny mouths are on God damned fire, and they'll act as if they've just walked 800 miles through the Sahara. They will come down...one by one...every God damned 5 minutes...for water.
Quinn，Harper和Bailey一個個的下來。當他們躺在床上時，他們會意識到他們的小嘴巴跟著火了一樣，他們會表現(xiàn)得好像走了800英里穿過撒哈拉沙漠。每隔五分鐘，他們一個接一個地下來喝水。

最后，這位媽媽告訴自己的老公，她要半個月才能回來！
