I was walking around in a Target store, when I saw a Cashier hand this little boy some money back.
8 g3 J9 g( W- R我在「塔杰」商店閒逛時，看到收銀員將一些錢退還給小男孩。

收銀員說：『抱歉！你買這娃娃的錢不夠。』

Then the little boy turned to the old woman next to him: ' ' Granny,

Finally, I walked toward him and I asked him who he wished to give this doll to.
. D' d* Q6 i& F! m最後我向他走去，問他這個娃娃你想給誰。

: r( j/ G# f# l7 @( c' c'It ' s the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much for Christmas.
『這是我妹妹的最愛，非常想要的聖誕節娃娃。

She was sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her. '
, t! D8 d8 V" x' W* f: r她一直認為聖誕老人會帶娃娃來給她的。」
+ T$ b/ e" g  [- q+ sI replied to him that maybe Santa Claus would bring it to her after all, and not to worry.
我告訴他不用擔心，聖誕老人最後可能會帶給她的。

But he replied to me sadly. ' No, Santa Claus can ' t bring it to her where she is now. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there. '
但他哀傷地回答我『不！聖誕老人不可能將它帶到她現在的地方給她。我必須將娃娃交給我媽，當她去那裡的時候可以給我妹妹。』

0 u3 b8 {! k& M: THis eyes were so sad while saying this. ' My Sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister. ' '
" H1 W5 J8 G, T他說話時的眼睛是哀傷的。『我妹妹已經和上帝在一起。爸爸說 媽媽很快也將要去見上帝，因此我認為她可以將娃娃帶給我妹妹。』

小男孩看我說：『我叫爸爸告訴媽媽現在不要走，讓她等我從購物中心回來。』

Then he showed me a very nice photo of himself. He was laughing. He then told me ' I want mommy to take my picture with her so she won ' t forget me. '
然後他拿出一張他自己非常漂亮的相片給我看。他笑著告訴我『我要媽媽帶著我的相片，這樣她就不會忘記我了。』

对自己负责。对别人负责，对社会负责，请勿酒后驾车。因为这个小男孩有可能成为你家的孩子。
