쑥쑥몰

유치원시절 샀던 세발 자전거를 그동안 방치해놨었는데,
무슨생각을 했는지 아빠가 쌓인 먼지를 깨끗이 닦고 양쪽 보조바퀴를 떼어서 다은이에게
타도록 했답니다. 두발 자전거에 익숙하지 않은 다은이는 처음에 이리쿵 저리쿵 하면서
손가락도 다치고 무릎에 멍도 많이 들었답니다.
3일째 되는 오늘 드디어 다은이가 두 발 자전거를 혼자서 탈 수 있게 되었답니다.
어느 순간 아빠가 뒤에서 자전거를 잡던 손을 놓았던 것이지요.
그 감동을 다은이가 영어 일기로 아래와 같이 적어 보았답니다.
이를 지켜보면서 다은이의 어릴 적 영어를 처음 접할때가 생각났습니다. 저 역시 초보라서
우왕좌왕하면서 아이에게 영어를 접해주었는데, 그럼에도 불구하고 결국 꾸준히 생활속에서
맥을 유지하면서 이끈 결과로 지금까지 안정적인 발전이 지속될 수 있었던 것 같았습니다.
무한히 늘고 있는 우리말 실력과 환경속에서도 말이지요.

The day that I rode on the bicycle.
Dear Diary,
I rode on the bicycle today.
Actually I couldn't ride on the bicycle. But I got to learn how to ride on the bike.
At the first time I was very scared of riding a bike.

Actually I couldn't ride on the bicycle. But I got to learn how to ride on the bike.
At the first time I was very scared of riding a bike.
Because a bike has only two wheels so it's very wobbling.
That's why I am so scared.
'Sooner or soon I would be able to ride on the bike' I thought like this.
You know, magically I could ride on the bike well.

I was zooming along ride on the bike. It was totally fun to race all around the playground.
That day was hot.
But I couldn't even feel the sun, cause I was running so fast.
I felt the wind and whispering in my ear 'run, run, as fast as you can'.
Then you would be cool.
So I ran faster and faster. Finally I was so tired, so I went to rest.
My dad was so surprised.

My dad was so surprised.
Because he thought I had to learn more how to ride on the bike.
Anyway he didn't even imagine that I would be good at riding on the bike in only few minutes.
I guess my dad was proud of me. Well I was proud of myself, too.
My dad was holding me. So I was riding on bike comfortably.
Suddenly I looked back, nobody was holding me.
I realized I could ride on the bike all by myself. I was so happy!
I thought 'Oh, I got braver, yeepy!'
My mom said, "How come you could ride on the bike?"
And I replied "It is all because of my courage". Thank you courage!
I think I have to thank my mom and dad. Cause they taught me how to ride on the bike.

I would like to write a letter to my own bike.
Dear Bike,
Hi! do you remember that I fell off the bike? What if you had two wheels more?
Hi! do you remember that I fell off the bike? What if you had two wheels more?
Maybe I wouldn't fall down if you had two wheels.
I hope you wouldn't wobble so much when I get on you.
Because I got scared that time. I hope you could kindly do like that.
You're my special bicycle. So I will always love you ~~~.
Today was a happpy day. I want to ride on a bike again!
