Let’s Go Bug Hunting More Often

Kids spell love T-I-M-E

                     John Crudele

    One fall afternoon I rushed home from the university where I taught. I prepared a simple dinner, threatened（恐吓，威胁）my nine-year-old daughter, Christi, to hurry and finish her homework “or else,” and told Del, my husband, not to leave his dusty shoes on the good carpet any more. I then hurriedly cleaned the entry-way because a group of respectable ladies were coming by to pick up some good used clothing for a worthwhile cause; and then later a graduate student would be at our house to work on a very important thesis（论题）—one that I was certain would help a lot with research.

    As I paused to catch a breath, I heard Christi talking with a friend on the telephone. Her words went something like this: “ Mom is cleaning house—some ladies we don’t even know are coming by to pick up some old worn-out clothes… and a college student is coming out to work on a thesis… no, I don’t know what a thesis is… I just know Mom isn’t doing anything important… and she won’t go bug（小虫）hunting with me.”

    Before Christi hung up the phone, I had put on my jeans and old tennis shoes, persuaded Del to do likewise, pinned a note to the door telling the graduate student I ’d be back soon, and set out the box of used clothing on the front porch（门廊）with a note on it that Del, Christi and I had gone bug hunting.
