Original 

This weekend I want to go meet my friend because I brought something from Paris to give her. Maybe she doesn’t have time to meet me because her baby is so small. If her mum or mum in law can’t bring care the __ baby for her, she can’t go out with me. I think the baby is just 3 months old. If the baby is very quiet and not naughty, I think its okay. But if its a very naughty child then no.

This weekend I want to go meet my friend because I brought something from Paris to give her. Maybe she doesn’t have time to meet me because her baby is still so small. If her mum or mum/mother in law can’t take care of the baby for her, then she can’t go out with me. I think the baby is just 3 months old. If the baby is very quiet and not naughty, I think its okay. But if its a very naughty child then no!
