My husband and I were talking about possible colors because it was time for painting the kitchen again. The children, sat nearby and suddenly 16 , "Not the measuring (测量) stick !"
The measuring stick isn't a real stick but the kitchen side of the door between our kitchen and dining room. Along the edge we have celebrated each child's growth by making a mark 17 his or her height on every birthday. Over the ten years so many colored pens, pencils and markers were 18 that the door came to be 19 like a painting.
Names and dates show different hand -writing, and I can 20 by the script (手迹) who measured whom. An eight -year -old brother measured her three - year - old sister, a grandchild measured her grandmother, my husband measured 21 . At parties, when this door swings, friends stop to 22 the names and date. When we ask the children if they would like the marks to be immortalized（不灭）, they usually had a smile.
Many of these listed on the door are still 23 while some have stopped. Some remain with us only in memory. When my mother came to see our eldest daughter graduated from university, we measured her, too. It was her last visit to our home.
We haven't decided on the new kitchen 24 plan yet, but one thing is 25 :Whether we paint the trim curry gold, Chowning's Tavem red or Federal blue, the back of the kitchen door will be always white with lots of names and dates in various colors.
