We have three children. They are very lovely and hard-working. They bring us a lot of happiness. One evening last week, our little boy came up to his mother while she was cooking dinner, and handed her a piece of paper with some words written on it. And this is what it said:
For cutting the grass in the garden: 5.00For cleaning up my bedroom this week: 1.00
For going to the store for you: 0.50For baby-sitting my kid brother when you went shopping: 2.25
For taking out the rubbish: 1.00For getting a good report card: 5.00
Total owed(欠): 14.75
After reading it, his mother thought for a while. Then she picked up a pen, turned over the paper, and wrote:
For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside me: free
For all the nights and days I worried about you: free
For all the toys,clothes,and food: free
For all the love I've given you: free
Then with tears in his eyes, the son looked straight up at his mother and said,“Mum, I love you. ” And he took the pen and wrote,“PAID IN FULL. ”
