Hello!
Encore une histoire de bébé... Espérons qu'elle vous plaira...
Translate into French:
‘The coming of this boy was a decisive event with Jurgis. It made him irrevocably a family man;
it killed the last lingering impulse that he might have had to go out in the evening and talk with
the men in the saloon.
There was nothing he cared for so much as to sit and look at the baby. This was very curious, for
Jurgis had never been interested in babies before. But then, this was a very unusual sort of a baby.
He had the brightest little black eyes, and little black ringlets all over his head; he was the living
image of his father, everybody said – and Jurgis found this a fascinating circumstance. It was
sufficiently perplexing that tiny mite of life should have come into the world at all in the manner
that it had; that it should have come with a comical imitation of its father’s nose was simply
uncanny.
Perhaps, Jurgis thought, this was intended to signify that it was his baby- that it was his and Ona’s,
to care for all its life. Jurgis had never possessed anything nearly so interesting - a baby was, when
you came to think about it, assuredly a marvellous possession. It would grow up to be a man, a
human soul, with a personality all its own, a will of its own! Such thoughts would keep haunting
Jurgis filling him with all sorts of strange and almost painful excitements. He was wonderfully
proud of little Antanas: he was curious about all the details of him- the washing and the dressing
and the eating and the sleeping of him, and asked all sorts of absurd questions. It took him quite
a while to get over his alarm at the incredible shortness of the little creature’s legs.
