我的小闺蜜~
昨晚喊了一晚 “好妈妈”，今天是不是应该给她买个六一礼物呀，“好宝宝”，哈哈~

爱你哟~

这个荔枝还是挺好吃的，核小~

淘宝买的杏~

接近中午收到十几年前我在武汉上班的时候的同事@sunshinexu 的微信，她说和她老公说了过来蜂巢发帖分享生活的事情，然后我就按照流程让她老公先加我，让他想好想要注册的账号名发给我，我给他查重一下，如果没有重复的就直接注册。结果这账号名给我发过来，我就感觉是在撒狗粮，@lovemi，这不是我同事的姓名中的名吗？立马截图给同事看，同事发来害羞的表情，哈哈~ 趁着同事的老公按照流程操作的功夫，我点开看了下他的微信，微信名是onelifeonelove，哎哟，我真是被狗粮喂饱了。

十几年前到现在，还这么甜甜蜜蜜的，真是让人“又相信爱情”了。有点怀疑同事平时写的和老公吵架了、怄气了是在撒娇~ 当然这里我也想到好几个问题，非要成为亿万富翁才能够拥有幸福的婚姻吗？看到一个新闻，企业家基本上都有抑郁症，很多都要靠药物调整状态，追求金钱的压力还是太大了，平平淡淡过一生也未必不是好事。好的关系是不是就不会发生矛盾冲突，不会吵架生气了呢？似乎也不是，有时候吵架也能帮助伴侣之间更了解彼此，懂得彼此的难处和需求，在某种程度上也可以加深感情。

今天是六一儿童节，然而我并没有提前准备礼物，打算去超市看看她之前就想要的那个洋娃娃还在不在了，之前以为那个洋娃娃会一直摆在那里，直到有一天我们像往常一样路过的时候，发现那个洋娃娃没了。女儿非常失望，我只能安慰她说应该还会有其他洋娃娃的，最近都不往超市的那个角落走了，生怕又让女儿想到了她“失去”了那只洋娃娃，她想要的生日礼物。早知道会被其他人买走或者是被超市调整，我就提前买好，等她生日再拿出来了，总以为会一直在那里的东西，突然之间就没了。

昨天端午节正好我在网上买的艾草到了，由于粗细不一样，所以一共寄来了12根，于是还是按照单数，前门挂放了5根，窗口挂放了7根，用来防蚊虫倒是也挺不错的。本来打算去买@adyiron 美女说的那个香包，出门给女儿戴上，放蚊虫叮咬的，但是那个香包是开口的，一看里面竟然是聚酯纤维一样的东西，而且说明上写着防火等，感觉这个香包和美女说的不太一样，所以也就没有买了。过节的粽子还是吃了的，蛋黄肉的女儿不吃，她说想吃甜粽子，于是我重新给她煮了粽子，我自己一下子吃了两个蛋黄咸肉粽子。

这两天女儿不怎么想吃饭了，于是给她点了汉堡，第一次点的套餐，她吃完所有的还嫌少，不过却还把最后一口汉堡拿来给我吃，这也太感动了吧。于是第二次我给她点了分量更多的，结果这次她表示吃不下了，还剩下鸡米花，她说辣不吃，其实估计是吃不下了，汉堡也剩下半个没吃，鸡腿也只啃了一半的肉。这正中了我的“计”，经济学里我们都学过“边际效应递减”，吃第一个馒头的时候，可能觉得非常好吃，但是连续吃很多个，可能就变得如同嚼蜡了，所以不如让她好好吃、多吃，祛魅了也就没有那么大的吸引力了。

English translation by AI for someone who is interested in my post but from other countries:

Around noon today, I received a WeChat message from a colleague of mine, @sunshinexu, whom I worked with in Wuhan many years ago. She told me that she had shared with her husband about posting and sharing life on Hive. I then walked her husband through the registration process, asking him to think of a username and send it to me so I could check for duplicates. If it was available, we would register it. When the username came through, I immediately felt like I was being fed dog food—@lovemi, isn't that the same name as my colleague's first name? I quickly took a screenshot and sent it to her. She responded with a shy emoji, haha~ While her husband was following the steps, I took a look at his WeChat, and his name was "onelifeonelove." Oh wow, I was truly stuffed with dog food.

It’s been over ten years, and they’re still so sweet and in love. It really makes me "believe in love" again. I kind of suspect that when my colleague talks about arguing with her husband or being mad at him, she’s actually just acting cute~ Of course, this also made me think of a few questions: do you have to become a billionaire to have a happy marriage? I saw a news report saying that most entrepreneurs suffer from depression, and many rely on medication to manage their moods. The pressure of pursuing wealth seems to be too much. A simple, peaceful life might not be such a bad thing. Do good relationships mean no conflicts, no arguments, no anger? It doesn’t seem so. Sometimes, arguing can help couples understand each other better, learn each other’s struggles and needs, and maybe even strengthen the bond.

Today is Children’s Day, but I didn’t prepare any gifts in advance. I was planning to go to the supermarket to see if the doll my daughter wanted was still there. I had thought the doll would always be on display, but when we passed by one day, it was gone. My daughter was really disappointed, so I could only comfort her, saying that there should be other dolls. I haven’t walked over to that corner of the supermarket recently, as I didn’t want her to remember the doll she lost—the birthday gift she wanted. If I had known it would be bought by someone else or moved by the supermarket, I would’ve bought it earlier and saved it for her birthday. I always thought it would be there, but suddenly, it was gone.

Yesterday, the mugwort I ordered online arrived just in time for the Dragon Boat Festival. There were 12 stalks in total since the thickness varied, so I hung 5 stalks at the front door and 7 at the window. It works well for keeping mosquitoes away. I had originally planned to buy the sachet @adyiron recommended for my daughter to wear, to keep mosquitoes from biting her, but when I opened it, I found that the inside was filled with something like polyester fiber, and the label mentioned things like fire resistance. It didn’t seem to match what the beauty had described, so I decided not to buy it. We still ate zongzi (rice dumplings) during the festival. My daughter didn’t eat the ones with salted egg yolk and meat; she said she wanted sweet zongzi, so I boiled her some sweet ones. I ended up eating two zongzi myself.

These days, my daughter hasn’t been eating much, so I ordered a burger for her. It was the first time I got her a set meal, and she finished everything but still complained it wasn’t enough. However, she even gave me the last bite of her burger. That was so touching! So, the next time, I ordered a larger portion for her. This time, though, she said she couldn’t eat it all. She still had some chicken nuggets left, and she said she didn’t want them spicy. In fact, I think she just couldn’t eat anymore. She left half a burger and only nibbled at a chicken leg. This totally played into my "plan." In economics, we learn about the "law of diminishing marginal utility." When you eat the first bun, it might taste delicious, but after eating several, it might feel like chewing wax. So, it's better to let her eat a little more and lose the novelty—it won’t be as attractive after a while.
