The diary provided here ends on the day of the child's first birthday. Wan Zhangxiao had an uneasy birth due to oxygen deprivation, which led to brain disease.

To accurately and comprehensively understand the child's growth and development, Mo Luo meticulously observed and recorded the child's behavior to provide material for doctors' future diagnosis and treatment. At the same time, the parents gave the child massages and exercises every day as an early intervention method to promote brain development and prevent from the brain disease. The diary highlights the cuteness of a small life and the infinite happiness the child brings to his parents. Wan Zhangxiao was born on December 18, 2002, and has now passed his first birthday.
