For my birthday, my parents sent me an mp3 as a card. My dad is Japanese, my mom is Korean, and neither of them speak the other’s native language. Needless to say, I grew up speaking English to them both, and in turn they learned to speak and write more properly in english throughout the years because of me. However, a bit of the accents and grammatical errors are still there, and I thought they sounded really cute in this audio. Oh, and they are also devout Christians, which explains the part at the end.

Mommy didn’t tell grandma about your old boyfriend the Japanese because grandma is very old and I am afraid you love Japanese make her heart sick and maybe then the grandma die. So Mommy did not tell him. Please find gentle boy and introduce to Mommy and Daddy. OK if Japanese. Just remember to don’t tell the grandma. She is very old. Love you!
