Everything on a Waffle. It is the hardest story I hear. I hardly believe that I could catch up. But I really do. Not every word, every single thing I can get from the audio, but I really get most of them. If I am still confuse, mum would not give me the book. It is a deal, I figure out what happen to Primrose then I can get the book read every thing about her.

Now I have finished the chapter 1-2. Uncle M, Martin's papa, help me think the story through and write down what I have learned about.

01 My Parents Are Lost at Sea.mp3　Length:14:40
02 I Move to Uncle Jack's.mp3　　　Length:07:37

Primrose's father was out in the sea when typhoon came. Her mother took her to Miss Perfidy's house and went out to find her father.

They never came back. Primrose's parents never came back after that.

Everyone believed Primrose's parents died. But Primrose didn't think so. Every morning she went down to the dock hoping to meet them again. She even thought of that they would come back on the back of a whale.

Miss Perfidy took 3 dollars an hour for taking care of Primrose. The town council thought it was too expensive. They had a meeting with Primrose's uncle Jack. They decided let Primrose live with Jack.

Primrose move to Jack's. She was a little sad about leaving home. When the school start, Primrose's schoolmate make her feel uncomfortable. They followed her, they giggled behind her. Two of them even told Primrose that she should believe her parents had died. They also said that Primrose's mother should stay with her instead of going out to looking for her father.

Miss Bowzer who always served everything on a waffle was Primrose's friend. She help her go throught the talking of schoolmate. She told Primrose her mother was going out for true love and many kids lost their parent or both parents. But Miss Bowzer didn't believe Primrose's parents were alive.

Now, you see? Everyone in the town, Miss Perfidy, town council, uncle Jack, schoolmate, even Primrose's friend Miss Bowzer all believed Primrose's parents had died!

But Primrose believe that her parents are alive.

She said, "It is about how hopeful the human heart is."

She said, "I am sure my mother and father would be here any time now."

She said, "I was content to wait for my parents' return no matter how long it took."

I believe Primrose. I believe Primrose's parents are alive.

Every time I hear of the talking of their death, I step up for Primrose. I am angry and I would cry, "Time will tell! You just wait!"

Something in the story is funny. I can't tell Primrose is sad or angry. Her parents have lost at sea, she has to live with uncle. No one believe her that her parents are alive. But Primrose tells the story in a ... cheer voice? or a excide voice? I am not sure...

Sometimes I can't help laughing. Primrose always tells me some funny thing.

When the town council had meeting with her uncle. Primrose wasn't afraid at all. She talked about everyone's sneeze. She talked about her pig-looking uncle and turtle-looking Miss Honeycut. And then Primrose said, "It was hard to imagine a pig and a turtle together." Every time I hear that, I giggle.

But Primrose also often talked about her mother. Every time I though she was in trouble she talked about her mother. When she knew she would perhaps have to live with uncle. She told me her mother called her uncle old hotfoot Jack. When she was followed by schoolmate, she told me how her mother cook asparagus. My mother said, my mother cook Primrose always said so.

If one day my papa was in danger and my mum wanted to go out looking for him, what should I do?

I know I could stay with Aunty or Aunty Hu as long as I want. They would never sent me to anyone else or take 3 dollars an hour. But I had to admit I want mum stay with me.

Am I selfish? Don't I love papa?

If I was in danger, papa and mum would come for me. So... if mum go out for papa with me. It would be better. Besides, I am sure papa would like to see me if he was in danger.

So am I not selfish? Do I love papa?

But I am not strong enough... If mum go with me, would I be slowdown?

So am I selfish? Don't I love papa?

Primrose is a brave girl. She live a healthy life without parents. So her parents could help each other without worrying about her.

I like to stay with parents. For save, perhaps. But I really could do more when papa or mum with me than I am alone. I knew I could run back to them when whatever happen if whatever would happen.

And I like to be a brave boy like Primrose...

En... One thing you should know about that I am a brave boy now. Perhaps not as brave as Primrose, but I am really a brave boy. Papa has gone out for job for a long long time. And mum goes out every day until it's dark. I stay home, I am a good boy.
