I had offered to watch my 3－year－old daughter ， Ramanda ， so that my wife could go out with a friend． I was getting some work done while Ramanda appeared to be having a good time in the other room． No problem ， I figured． But then it got a little too quiet and I yelled out ， "What are you doing ， Ramanda?" No response． I repeated my question and heard her say ， "Oh．．．nothing．" Nothing? What does "nothing" mean?
我主动提出照看我3岁的女儿 ， Ramanda ， 以便妻子能和她的朋友出去逛逛 。 我在做些事 ， 此时Ramanda似乎在另一个房间玩得也很开心 。 我知道 ， 没什么问题 。 突然间一点动静都没有了 ， 于是我喊道：“Ramanda ， 你在干什么？”没有回答 。 我重复问了几次 ， 这时听她说道：“没什么” ， “没什么？那是什么意思？”
I got up from my desk and ran out into the living room ， whereupon（于是） I saw her take off down the hall． I chased her up the stairs and watched her as her little behind made a hard left into the bedroom． I was gaining on her！ She took off for the bathroom． Bad move． I had her cornered． I told her to turn around． She refused． I pulled out my big ， mean ， authoritative Daddy voice ， "Young lady ， I said turn around！"

我从桌旁起身跑进起居室 ， 我看见她溜到客厅 ， 我追到楼梯上看到她的小背影跑进卧室 ， 我正要靠近她 ， 她又跑到了洗漱室 。 真晕 。 我在墙角处逮到了她 ， 我让她转身 ， 她不从 。 于是我用威严的父亲的那种声调说道“小姐 ， 我命令你转身 。 ”
Slowly ， she turned toward me． In her hand was what was left of my wife's new lipstick（口红 ， 唇膏）． And every square inch of her face was covered with bright red （except her lips of course）！
慢慢地 ， 她转过身 ， 手里拿着我妻子的新口红 。 她的脸上涂满了明亮的红色（除了嘴唇） 。
As she looked up at me with fearful eyes ， lips trembling ， I heard every voice that had been shouted to me as a child． "How could you．．．You should know better than that．．．How many times have you been told．．．What a bad thing to do．．．" It was just a matter of my picking out which old message I was going to use on her so that she would know what a bad girl she had been． But before I could let loose（释放 ， 屈服） ， I looked down at the sweatshirt my wife had put on her only an hour before． In big letters it said ， "I'M A PERFECT LITTLE ANGEL！" I looked back up into her tearful eyes and instead of seeing a bad girl who didn't listen ， I saw a child of God．．．a perfect little angel full of worth ， value and a wonderful spontaneity（自发性） that I had come dangerously close to shaming out of her．
当她用惊慌的眼神抬头看着我时 ， 她的嘴唇在颤抖 ， 我听见了那些应对小孩说的话“你怎么能……你应该知道……告诉你多少次了……你做了见多糟糕的事……”现在只需要选句常说的老话来警告她 ， 以便让她知道自己有多坏 。 但是在我说这些话之前 ， 我低头看见了妻子一个小时前让她穿上的运动衫 ， 上面用很大的字母写着“我是个完美的小天使” ， 我回头看见了她眼中的泪水 ， 这次我看到的不是一个坏女孩 ， 而是上帝的女儿……一个有价值 ， 很自主的完美小天使 ， 我险些让她蒙羞而使她丧失这些品质 。
"Sweetheart ， you look beautiful！ Let's take a picture so Mommy can see how special you look．" I took the picture and thanked God that I didn't miss the opportunity to reaffirm what a perfect little angel he had given me．
