Today is the weekend, I have a rest. My son in senior three has a half-day holiday in the afternoon and attends self-study as usual in the evening.
Because he went to bed early last night and didn't finish the big English question, I set the alarm clock 20 minutes earlier than usual this morning. I get up at 5: 30 and wake my son at 5: 40. After getting up, he brushed his teeth, took a shower, put on a bath towel and hurried to do the English problem he left behind last night.
Heat him a glass of milk, I'll blow his hair with a hair dryer here, and he'll swig milk there. He was not happy to let him eat hamburgers before he had time, saying that he wanted me to put them in his schoolbag, saying that he didn't have time to eat at home and would take them to school. At 6: 50, he hurried downstairs.
It is less than 300 meters from the residential area where accompanying students live to the school. If you walk out from the residential area, you only need to cross a road to get to the school. They began to study by themselves at 7 o'clock. In fact, as long as they leave home 10 minutes in advance, there will be more than enough time to get to the classroom.
Every morning, I correctly replied that he went to school, as busy as marching and fighting. First, prepare school uniform, hot water, paper and fruit for him, let him get up, then make breakfast and watch him finish eating. In the meantime, I have to spend time drying his freshly washed hair.
He went downstairs before 7 o'clock, and I suddenly collapsed on the sofa. I just want to catch my breath and have a rest first.

Because my son has a half-day holiday every Sunday, we agreed to eat out at noon. This is to let him relax and enjoy the delicious food he wants, and also to give me a holiday, so I don't have to prepare his lunch in a hurry.
Today, in this rare half-day time, I first washed the sheets with the washing machine, covered the quilt, spread clean bedding in two rooms, and then dragged all the rooms. Originally, I wanted to watch an online drama. It's almost noon, so I quickly washed my face and makeup and went to school to pick up my son.
The school gate is crowded with parents who pick up and drop off students, many of whom are parents of boarding students from afar. Although it is only half a day, parents should take the trouble to meet their children, have a reunion dinner with them outside school and talk to them for a while.
I took my son. We took a taxi to Wanda to buy a cup of milk tea, and then walked from Wanda to Jiutian for a barbecue.
Only this half-day every week can my son walk out of the ivory tower to breathe fresh air and see the street view of the city and the sky in late autumn. My son's mood is also happy.
The car sped along the wide road. I opened the window and a cool breeze blew across my face. On both sides of the road, high and low street trees, like paint bottles knocked over by God, came enthusiastically with yellow, purple, red and green leaves, dressed up completely.
My son is happy to show me the golden poplar leaves. How beautiful! He kept muttering to himself. Yes, usually, my son is at school and home at two o'clock every day. In his haste and fatigue, he neglected the change of seasons and the appreciation of scenery for a long time.
After the barbecue, we didn't go back to the rental house, but took a taxi back to our community. We first went to the barbershop in the community for a haircut. Recently, the school has strictly stipulated students' hairstyles. Boys are not allowed to have long hair. Our son's hair is very long, so we should cut it short.

It was already 2: 30 in the afternoon when I got home after cutting my hair. My son plays with his mobile phone for a while, makes a set of English papers, and starts to sleep at four o'clock.
At six o'clock, I woke him up, we took a taxi back to the rental house, he went to study at night, and I went to buy the ingredients for tomorrow.
At 10: 45 in the evening, my son taught himself to go home next night. I saw him holding a KFC paper bag in his hand, and he was very puzzled. My son said that the father of the classmate next door bought it, and the classmate and he each had a midnight snack.
It is late at night. I used to stand on the balcony, open the window and look at the lights outside. All the lights in the front building have been extinguished, except for a few stars flashing far or near in the black sky. My son has fallen asleep, and I will fall asleep when everything is quiet.
