I’m Emily. I live in a small village in the US. On my 56th birthday,my daughter Beth gives me a special birthday present. She gives me two beautiful wooden butterflies(木蝴蝶). I put them on the wall,so I can enjoy them all the day.
My mum passed away(去世)when I was 25 years old. It’s not straightforward for Beth to know my mum,because she never sees my mum. And she never lives with my mum. I always tell her that her grandma loves her.
On July 1st,I play with Beth outside. She says she misses her grandma. At that time,a butterfly comes down,flies around Beth,and then flies away. I say,“Your grandma watches you from the sky every day. She takes a ride on the back of a butterfly to visit you. ”Then we both laugh.
From then on,butterflies follow us. When we are outside,they come down. ▲ They take a close look and fly away. They let me feel my mum’s love. The wooden butterflies become my good friends. They let me think of my mum. I’m so happy to have them.
