On her return from flying a kite, little Darley, agedeight, was pulled onto her Daddy's knee andinformed that the fairies of that day brought a bigsurprise—a little baby brother. She seemed glad, andpresently said, “Will you give me a stamp, Daddy? Iwant to write and tell Brother Tom.”
八歲的小多莉放風(fēng)箏回到家，被爸爸拉過來坐在膝蓋上，告訴她哪天的仙女給他們帶來了一個大大的驚喜——一個新生的小弟弟。她看起來很高興，馬上說：“爸爸，你能不能給我一張郵票?我要寫信告訴哥哥湯姆。”
The father was touched by this, and provided the little girl with the materials to write a letter toher brother, who was away at school. She took a bottle of soda from the fridge and went to herown room. Later, curious to know how she would tell the news, her father took an opportunityto read what she had written. He received something of a shock on reading the following:
父親被這話感動了，他為小姑娘備齊了給她住在學(xué)校里的哥哥寫信所需的各種用具。小多莉從冰箱里拿了瓶汽水就進(jìn)了自己的房間。后來，爸爸很想知道她是怎么告訴哥哥這個消息的，就找了個機(jī)會讀了小多莉?qū)懙男?。在讀到下面這兩行字時，他差點(diǎn)兒驚呆了：
"Dear Tom,
“親愛的湯姆：
It's come off today. You've lost. It's a boy. So you owe me a squirrel doll."
今天結(jié)果出來了，你輸了;是個男孩。所以你欠我一只玩具松鼠。”
