What a great mother!

妈妈总让我独自面对难题，我一度以为她是“世界最懒老妈”。可后来，我竟发现了不得了的事！快来和我一起在文章里一探究竟 。

When I had something difficult to do, I used to ask my mum for help. But she always said, “Do it yourself, dear.” I would get so angry. I thought she was the laziest mother in the world! For example, one day I decided to invite some friends to my home. My bedroom was very dirty. Books were all over the table and ground. I didn’t make my bed. I asked my mother to help me clean it. But she said seriously, “Do it yourself, girl.”
Because of my “lazy mum”, I have to wash my clothes and clean my room. I have to help my parents do housework. I even have to go to the dentist alone. It is really hard to do everything by myself, but I have learned a lot.
As time goes by, I understand my mother. It’s her “laziness” that makes me clever and diligent. Just as my mum always says, “A lady can’t be lazy, or she’ll be crazy. Hard-work can make you sunny!”
What a great mother! A good mother is worth a hundred teachers!
