My mother has no idea that her ninetieth birthday is coming up. She has no notion of the time of day, the day of the week. the season of the year, the year of the century. No notion of the approaching millennium. And no idea any longer, who I am. Her forgetting of me happened just a few months ago, after I had been traveling for more than a month and hadn't been to see her. When I came back, she asked me if I were her niece, l said no, I was her daughter. "Does that mean I had you?" she asked. 1 said yes. "Where was I when l had you?" she asked me. I told her she was in a hospital in Far Rockaway. New York. "So much has happened to me in my life." she said "You can't expect me to remember everything."
My mother was once a beautiful woman, but all her teeth are gone now. Toothless. No woman can be considered beautiful. Whenever I visit her in the nursing home, she is sitting at the table in the common dining room, her head in her hands, rocking. Medication has eased her anxiety, but nothing moves her from her stupor except occasional moments of fear, too deep for medication. This is a room that has no windows, that lets in no light, in which an overlarge TV is constantly blaring, sending images that no one looks at where the floors are beige tiles, the walls cream colored at the bottom, papered halfway up with a pattern of nearly invisible grayish leaves. Many of the residents sit staring, slack-jawed, open mouthed. I find it impossible to imagine what they might be looking at.
When I walk into the dining room on the day of my mother's birthday, I see that she has already been served lunch. The staff has forgotten to hold it back. Though I told them a week ago that I would be providing lunch. She hasn’t touched anything on her tray except a piece of carrot cake, which she holds in her hands. The icing is smeared on her hands and face. I don't want my friends to see her smeared with icing, so I wet a paper towel and wipe her. This fills me with a terrible tenderness, recalling, as it does. a gesture I have performed for my children. As I wipe my mother's face, I see that her skin is still beautiful I hold her chin in my hand and kiss her forehead. I tell her it's her birthday, that she's ninety years old. "How did that happen?" she asks. "I can't understand how that could happen."
l have brought her a bouquet of crimson, yellow, and salmon-pink snapdragons. She likes the flowers very much. She likes the name. "Snapdragons. It seems like an animal that's going to bite inc. But it's not an animal, it's a plant. That's a funny thing,"
I have bought food that I hope will please my mother, and that will be easy for her to eat: orzo salad with little pieces of crayfish cut into it, potato salad, small chunks of marinated tomatoes. I have bought paper plates with a rust-colored background, upon which are painted yellow and gold flowers and blue leaves.
My friends Nola and Gary come for my mother's birthday. When we are about to leave, I tell my mother that I'm going on vacation, mat I won't see her for three weeks, that 1 am going to the sea. "How will I stand that, how will I stand that's she says, but I know that a minute after I’m gone she'll forget I was there.
I love my mother very much. Like many other Chinese women, my mother is diligent. She works in a primary school. In order to teach well, she prepares her lectures very carefully and often works so late at night.
My mother is very kind and sincere. She gets along with her neighbors and colleagues. When they have difficulties, she is always ready to lend them a helpful hand. Therefore she is loved and respected in our neighborhood. From .
Mother often tells me to be honest and upright. She expects me to be useful to the people in the future. Up to now, I still remember her saying: Do as much as you can and you will succeed.人人听力网
我非常爱我的母亲。我的母亲跟其他中国妇女一样，很勤劳。她在一所小学工作。为了教好书，她备课很仔细，常常工作到深夜。
我的母亲待人非常和蔼而且真诚。邻居和同事都与她相处得很好。当他们有困难的时候，母亲总是乐意帮助他们。因此在我们社区里，她深受大家的尊敬和爱戴。
母亲经常教导我要诚实正直。她希望我将来做一个对人民有用的人。直到现在，我仍然记得她说的话：尽你最大的可能去做事，你就会成功。
It was Mother’s Day. Sun Zheng thought he should do something for his mother. He decided to help his mother do some housework. After school he went to a shop to buy some food on his way home.
When he got home, he did his best to cook some nice food,though he couldn’t do the cooking well. Thenhe cleaned the room. He felt very tired, but he was very happy.
When his father and his mother came back and saw the clean rooms and dishes which weren’t so nice, they were very happy.They had their supper together. His mother said, "Thank you,my child!"
Today is Mother’s Day. I know some of my classmates are going to help their mothers with the housework, others .are going to buy some flowers for their mothers. I want to say to her that I love her very much. But as a boy, it is a bit difficult for me to show my heart. I think only girls can do that.
My mother is very kind. She takes care of me day and night.
She spends little money, but buys anything for me that I need.
This time I must show my love. I am going to give her a card and write like this, "I love you, mother!" I am going to put it under her pillow.
Mother's Day Mother’s Day is a holiday when children honor their mothers with cards, gifts and flowers. In many countries, such as Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia and the US, people cel lebrate Mother’s Day on the second Sunday in May while many other countries of the world celebrate their own Mother’s day at different times through out the year.
One of the best ways to celebrate Mother’s Day is to give your mom the day off. Let her relax with the rest of the family doing all the housework. Usually, dad and the kids will let mom sleep late that morning as they go into the kitchen to prepare her favourite breakfast. Never forget to place a vase with a single flower on the table beside the food. The kids can pick up the flower from the garden or buy one from the shop. Arrange everything nicely before mom wakes up. Some families will carry the food and mom’s favourite sections from the newspaper to her bedroom so that mom can have breakfast in bed. Presents and cards from the kids can be handed to mom by themselves or just placed on the dining table.
After breakfast, go anywhere mom likes to go. Shopping, swimming or going on a picnic in the garden. Make a special Mother’s Day dinner or take mom out for a great meal in a famous restaurant she loves most.
Anyway ,let mom enjoy the whole day and feel your love, and then the Mother’s Day can be a good one. As Mother’s Day is around the corner, it’s time to take actions!
今天是——母亲节，是妈妈的节日。我琢磨着给妈妈送上一件最有意义的礼物。送束花吧！太俗气；送贺卡吧！又太普通；送吃的吧！又没档次。我冥思苦想了一阵，还是想不出来。于是，我想：去礼品店看看，看什么能表达心意，看什么顺眼，我就买什么。对！就这样，于是我就飞一般的向礼品店跑去。
推开礼品店的大门，店里挤满了为妈妈买礼物的小学生，里面的商品琳琅满目，让我挑花了眼。我看了看都不知道买什么好了，于是我走到店主那去，说：“你好阿姨，请问这有没有送给母亲的礼物？”店主带我走过去，热情的介绍说：“这三款卖得挺好的，今天是母亲节吧？”我点了点头，我掂量了一会，我觉得那款挺好的，外形是一个支架，上面有颗红心，红心上还刻着英文：love is love。我觉得它是一颗红心，不正象征着我的那颗火热的红心？那颗红心在支架上固定不动，不正象征着我的心不变吗？想到这儿，我毫不犹豫地掏出钱，买下这个礼物。
回到家，我总觉得还缺少点什么，于是我又给礼物包上美丽的包装盒。
时钟敲了六下，妈妈拖着劳累的身躯回来了。一进门，我就把礼物拿出来给妈妈，妈妈一时没反应过来，过了一会，妈妈抚摸着我的头，眼中闪这泪花，缓缓说道：“我的女儿长大了！”就在这一瞬间，我思绪万千。
这虽然是一个很不起眼的礼物，但在妈妈的眼中，它比她的生命都重要！我一定要让妈妈每天都感受到我对她的爱！
Today is -- mother's day, mother's day. I thought about giving my mother the most meaningful gift. Send flowers! Too tacky; Send greeting CARDS! Too general; Send to eat! And no class. I thought about it for a while and couldn't figure it out. Then I thought: go to the gift shop and see what I can express my mind and see what I can buy. Right! So I flew to the gift shop.
Pushing away the door of the gift shop, the store was full of students who bought gifts for their mother, and the merchandise was so full that I had to pick my eyes. I didn't know what to buy, so I went to the shopkeeper and said, "hello auntie, is there a present for my mother?" The shopkeeper took me over and said, "these three are selling well. Today is mother's day?" I nodded, and I looked at it for a while, and I thought it was a good one, with a red heart on it, and a red heart with a heart on it: love is love. I think it's a red heart, not a symbol of my fiery red heart? Is the red heart fixed on the scaffold, not a symbol of my heart? I didn't hesitate to take out the money and buy the gift.
When I got home, I always felt like I was missing something, so I wrapped the presents in beautiful boxes.
The clock struck six, and mother came back with her tired body. Take the door, I will take out your gift to mom, mom at that time have no reaction to come over, after a while, mother stroked my head, eyes the tears, said slowly: "my daughter grow up!" For a moment, my mind was full of thoughts.
This is a very humble gift, but in the eyes of mother, it is more important than her life! I must let my mother feel my love for her every day!
My mother is a kind and gentle woman.She is always very gentle.She takes good care of her children and keeps them all at school.I have two brothers and two sisters.So she gets five children in all.She gives us every comfort we need.We all love her very much.
My mother has too much to do in bring us up.As our family is not rich enough,my mother always hits to do a lot of work.She gets up very early and sleeps very late every day.She works very hard,yet without complaining.
五月，阳光灿烂，鲜花盛开，暖风拂面，那是因为在这美丽的五月，在这灿烂的季节里，我们又一次迎来了亲情融融的“母亲节”。又是一年母亲节，母亲，多么神圣而纯洁的字眼，母爱，多么深沉而厚重的一种情感，在这温馨的日子里，叫一声母亲，是那么纯真，那么动人，那是我们对母亲最深切的称呼。
“慈母手中线，游子身上衣。临行密密缝，意恐迟迟归，谁言寸草心，报得三春晖？”唐代诗人孟郊的一首传诵古今的道出了人世间最诚挚、最深切、最令人动容的母子情怀。都说世界上有一位最善良，最伟大的女性，她就是我们慈祥的母亲；都说人世间有一种最美丽、最温和的声音，那就是母亲对儿女的呼唤；都说这个世界上有一个最伟大、最无私、最勤劳的人，她还是我们的母亲！
从我们咕咕坠地，在人世间发出第一声啼哭，我们便成了母亲一生的牵挂，母亲的眼里只有儿女，而我们心中母亲的位置占的比重是多少，在这个美丽而特殊的日子到来的时候，我为母亲和未来的婆婆准备了漂亮的衣服，两位母亲都很高兴，衣服穿在身上，心里更是比蜜甜，其实母亲要的就是做儿女的心中有她，而不是要儿女做多大贡献。
看着母亲眼角渐渐爬上的鱼尾纹，母亲已经已经不再年轻，已经步入老年的母亲需要我们做的最多的就是常回家看看，哪怕是帮妈妈刷刷筷子洗洗碗，听听妈妈的唠叨，吃顿老人准备的好饭，老人不图儿女为家做多大贡献，就盼着经常团聚。但是这小小的愿望我们做儿女的有多少能做到呢。母亲节到了，朋友们赶紧为自己的母亲准备一份礼物吧，其实，你真的不用为此大伤脑筋，因为能让老妈最快乐的事莫过于全家人的团圆与平安。一枝鲜丽的康乃馨，一顿可口而轻松的团圆饭，一件漂亮的衣服这就是对老妈的礼物。
又是一年母亲节，又是一年温馨祝福时，在这美丽且只属于母亲的节日里，我祝天下所有的母亲永远健康美丽，一切事情都顺心如意，节日快乐！

离我家很近，有一家超市，售货员是一位年轻的阿姨。她和蔼可亲，脸上总是带着笑容。
5月9日这天是母亲节，下午，天气有点热，我走进了这家超市，想给妈妈买点节日礼物。正当我在柜台前走来走去挑选礼物时，超市里来了一位特殊的客人。说他“特殊”，因为他看上去只有十一二岁，身体很瘦弱，却戴着一副大墨镜。我在心里暗想：哼，装酷！
只见他走到柜台前，手在柜台上摸摸索索了一阵，然后歪着头大声问：“请问有玉手镯吗？”
售货员阿姨闻讯走到了他的跟前，和蔼的问：“孩子，你为谁买手镯？”
“我给妈妈买的，今天是母亲节，我想让妈妈高兴一下！”那个男孩从口袋里摸出一些零碎的钱币，放到了柜台上。看上去，最多也不过三五元钱。
售货员阿姨从旁边的柜台里拿出一副绿色的晶莹剔透的手镯，递到了那个男孩的手里：“孩子，这是一副绿色的手镯，拿回家你妈妈一定会喜欢的。”然后，阿姨象征性地从柜台上拿起了几元钱，把剩下的那些钱又塞进了男孩的手中。男孩接过手镯和钱，连声说着谢谢，慢慢转身，好像很小心的走出了超市门。
看到这一幕，我感到非常纳闷，那个男孩拿的手镯少说也要几十元，为什么阿姨只留了他那么点儿钱，而且钱连数也没数呢？我把我的疑问说给了阿姨，阿姨告诉了我事情的来龙去脉。
原来男孩在六岁时生了一场大病，双目几近失明，成了盲童。他的母亲为了挣钱给他看病，到处找活干，却不幸在一个建筑工地干活时摔伤了腰椎，瘫痪在床。这个盲童就承担起了照顾妈妈的重担。今天这个特殊的节日，阿姨为小男孩的孝心所感动，所以半卖半送给了小男孩那副手镯。
这个下午，我从小男孩和阿姨身上学到了很多，这个母亲节，让我难忘！
Close to my home, there is a supermarket. The salesman is a young aunt. She was kind, with a smile on her face.
It was mother's day on May 9, and in the afternoon, it was a little hot. I walked into the supermarket and wanted to buy some holiday gifts for my mother. Just as I was walking around the counter to pick up the gift, there was a special guest in the supermarket. He said he was "special" because he looked only 11 years old and was very thin, but he was wearing big sunglasses. I thought to myself: huh, cool!
He walked up to the counter, and he felt a moment in front of the counter, and then he looked up and said, "is there a jade bracelet?"
The saleswoman came up to him and said, "son, who are you buying bracelets for?"
"I bought it for my mother. Today is mother's day. I want my mother to be happy!" The boy found bits and pieces of COINS in his pocket and put them on the counter. It looks like it's only three or five dollars.
Salesman aunt took a pair of green from the counter next to the crystal bracelets, to the boy's hands: "children, this is a green bracelet, take home your mom will love it." Then, symbolically, my aunt picked up a few dollars from the counter and stuffed the rest of the money into the boy's hand. The boy took the bracelet and the money, said thank you, and turned slowly, as if he were careful to walk out of the supermarket door.
See this scene, I feel very puzzled, the boy took the bracelets say less to dozens of yuan, aunt why he left so only a little money, and no money even number number? I told my aunt my question, and my aunt told me the story.
The boy had a great illness at the age of six, and his eyes were nearly blind and he was blind. His mother, who was looking for work to earn money, had trouble working on a construction site and was paralyzed in bed. The blind child took on the burden of taking care of his mother. Today this special day, the aunt was moved by the little boy's filial piety, so half sold half to the little boy the bracelet.
This afternoon, I learned a lot from my little boy and aunt. This mother's day, I can't forget it!
Today is Mother’s Day. I know some of my classmates are going to help their mothers with the housework, others .are going to buy some flowers for their mothers. I want to say to her that I love her very much. But as a boy, it is a bit difficult for me to show my heart. I think only girls can do that.
My mother is very kind. She takes care of me day and night.
She spends little money, but buys anything for me that I need.
This time I must show my love. I am going to give her a card and write like this, "I love you, mother!" I am going to put it under her pillow.
The earliest Mother's Day celebrations are traced back to the spring celebrations of ancient Greece(古希腊) in honor of Rhea,the Mother of the Gods.
During the 1600's,England celebrated a day called "Mothering Sunday"(拜望双亲日),celebrated on the 4th Sunday of Lent ."Mothering Sunday" honored the mothers of England.During this time many of the England's poor worked as servants for the wealthy.As most jobs were located far from their homes,the servants would live at the houses of their employers

今天是母亲节。孙峥觉得应该为妈妈做点事，他决定帮妈妈做些家务。放学回家的路上，他去商店买了食品。到家后，他尽全力做些好吃的，尽管他并不擅长烹任。做完饭，他又打扫了房间。他感觉有些累，但仍然很高兴。
当父母回来后，看见干净的房间和并不太荚味的菜，他们依然很高兴。他们一起吃了晚饭。妈妈说：“谢谢你，孩子。”
母亲节快到了，我想送给妈妈一件礼物。送什么好呢？我想了半天，终于想出了一个非常好的主意。我要用我攒下的钱给妈妈买两朵康乃馨，因为康乃馨是专门送给妈妈的花。
我请大姨帮忙，给妈妈挑选了两朵粉红色的康乃馨，康乃馨很漂亮，粉嘟嘟、水灵灵的，好像在看着我们笑呢。
一回到家，我就找出一个瓶子，在瓶子外面包了一张彩色的纸，又用水彩笔用心地写上了“祝妈妈节日快乐！我和爸爸爱您。”旁边还画了一些美丽的图案。想知道我画的是什么吗？告许你们：画了一滴小水滴。瓶子代表爸爸，康乃馨代表妈妈，瓶子上小水滴当然代表我了。我们一家是世界上最幸福的一家人。
接着，我装了半瓶子水，插上了心爱的康乃馨，看着我的杰作心里得意极了。照照镜子，哈哈！我的鼻尖都露出了珍珠般的小汗珠。
母亲节那天，我要亲手把它送给妈妈，祝妈妈生日快乐还要祝妈妈笑口常开。人们说母亲的爱是永远报达不了的。我要送给妈妈一个甜甜的微笑，我心想妈妈一定会高兴的，也有可能会抱着我说“我的女儿知道报答父母的爱了。母亲节肯定是我们最快乐一天，因为妈妈收到了我的礼物。
Mother's day is coming. I want to give my mother a present. What should I give you? I thought for a long time and finally came up with a very good idea. I'm going to buy my mother two carnations with the money I've saved, because carnations are dedicated to mom.
Please sister help, I give mother picked two pink carnations, carnation is very beautiful, powder doodle, weeping, seemed to be looking at us laugh.
Got home, I will find out a bottle, the bottle bread for a piece of colored paper, outside with watercolors mindfully, wrote "I wish mom a happy holiday! I love you and dad." There are some beautiful patterns on the side. Want to know what I'm drawing? Tell you: a drop of water. The bottle represents the father, the carnation on behalf of the mother, the little water droplet on the bottle of course stands for me. Our family is the happiest family in the world.
Then I put half a bottle of water in my favorite carnation, and watched my masterpiece triumph. Look in the mirror, haha! My tip of my nose was a pearl of sweat.
On mother's day, I want to give it to my mom, happy birthday to my mother and a smile to my mother. People say that mother's love is never offered. I want to give mom a sweet smile, I thought my mother will be happy, may be holding the I said, "my daughter know repay parents' love. Mother's day is our most happy day, because mother received a gift from me.
My mother is a simple woman who comes from the countryside with little education. But in my eyes, she is the greatest mother in the world. Her perseverance gives me courage in all my life. Whenever I have trouble doing something and think about giving up, the scene that happened three years ago to mother just come into my mind.
Having asked for a leave from the teacher, I left the boring class and went to home with my favorite novel tucked under my arm. Father was at work, brother was at school, mother wouldn't be back from her small store until evening. I felt very happy thinking that I would have the entire house to myself. I bounded up steps, burst into the room but was shocked by whatever I saw. Mother was sitting in the sofa, sobbing with her shoulder twitching. I had never seen mother crying before. I went close to her, asking what had happened. She wiped her tears, forced a smile, and told me calmly that her small store was going to break. I didn’t know how to comfort her at the moment, but I did know what the small store meant to her.
Mother ran the small store in order for my brother and me to have a better education. As father worked with low salary which could merely afford the whole family's life necessities, mother had to try hard to earn money for our education. She was frantic to make money before she managed the store herself. She once worked day and night for months on end in a small restaurant. It was a very difficult period of time for her. But she never complained before us. Eventually, she had her own business by running the small store. And she really managed it well all the time with great efforts. I never expected that the store would break. This will undoubtedly take everything away from my mother. I couldn't help worrying about her. Mother seemed to read the worry on my face. She patted me on my shoulder, speaking with a faint smile: "Well, it may not be that serious. I'll try to make it better whatever. We'll be fine, my dear boy." I was so moved by mother's words. It turned out that mother really rebuilt her business soon and the store ran well. I could imagine how much mother had paid for her small store business. It was really too much for a woman. But she never gave up. She just went ahead with her unusual perseverance.
Now both my brother and I are studying at college. Mother works harder to finance our education. She is struggling by all means to keep the store business going. Her unusual perseverance is so inspiring to me that I will never give up halfway in my life.
Mother's Day is a celebration honoring mothers and celebrating motherhood, maternal bonds and the influence of mothers in society. It's a day to show thanks to mothers. This festival first appeared in ancient Greece and modern Mother's Day originated in the United States which usually falls on the second Sunday of May each year. Mothers usually receive gifts on this day and carnation(康乃馨) is regarded as the flower for mother. In China, the flower for mother is day lily(萱草花), also known as Nepenthe(忘忧草). In addition, cleaning up the room, doing housework and a big dinner are considered to be the best Mother's Day gifts.
母亲节是纪念母亲，赞扬母爱和母性情结，以及社会上母亲的影响的节日。这是向母亲表达感谢的一天。这个节日最初出现于古希腊，现代母亲节源于美国，通常是在每年五月的第二个星期六。母亲们通常会在这一天收到礼物，康乃馨被看做是母亲之花。在中国，给母亲的花通常是萱草花，也叫做忘忧草。另外，打扫屋子，做家务，做一顿丰盛的晚餐都被当做是给母亲的礼物。
I love my mother very much. Like many other Chinese women, my mother is diligent. She works in a primary school. In order to teach well, she prepares her lectures very carefully and often works so late at night.
My mother is very kind and sincere. She gets along with her neighbors and colleagues. When they have difficulties, she is always ready to lend them a helpful hand. Therefore she is loved and respected in our neighborhood. From .
Mother often tells me to be honest and upright. She expects me to be useful to the people in the future. Up to now, I still remember her saying: Do as much as you can and you will succeed.
Night after night, she came to tuck me in, even long after my childhood years. Following her longstanding custom, she\'d lean down and push my long hair out of the way, then kiss my forehead.
I don\'t remember when it first started annoying me — her hands pushing my hair that way. But it did annoy me, for they felt work-worn and rough against my young skin. Finally, one night, I shouted out at her, Don\'t do that anymore —your hands are too rough! She didn\'t say anything in reply. But never again did my mother close out my day with that familiar expression of her love.
Time after time, with the passing years, my thoughts returned to that night. By then I missed my mother\'s hands, missed her goodnight kiss on my forehead. Sometimes the incident seemed very close, sometimes far away. But always it lurked, in the back of my mind.
Well, the years have passed, and I\'m not a little girl anymore. Mom is in her mid-seventies, and those hands I once thought to be so rough are still doing things for me and my family. She\'s been our doctor, reaching into a medicine cabinet for the remedy to calm a young girl\'s stomach or soothe the boy\'s scraped knee. She cooks the best fried chicken in the world... gets stains out of blue jeans like I never could...
Now, my own children are grown and gone. Mom no longer has Dad, and on special occasions, I find myself drawn next door to spend the night with her. So it was late on Thanksgiving Eve, as I slept in the bedroom of my youth, a familiar hand hesitantly run across my face to brush the hair from my forehead. Then a kiss, ever so gently, touched my brow.
In my memory, for the thousandth time, I recalled the night my young voice complained, Don\'t do that anymore — your hands are too rough! Catching Mom\'s hand in hand, I blurted out how sorry I was for that night. I thought she\'d remember, as I did. But Mom didn\'t know what I was talking about. She had forgotten — and forgiven — long ago.
That night, I fell asleep with a new appreciation for my gentle mother and her caring hands. And the guilt that I had carried around for so long was nowhere to be found.

夜复一夜，她总是来帮我把被子掖好，即使我早已不是小孩子了。掖好被子后，她会弯下身来，拨开我的长发，在我的额头上吻一下。这是母亲长久以来的习惯。
不记得从何时起，我开始讨厌她用手拨开我的头发。但我的确讨厌她长期操劳、粗糙的手触摸我细嫩的皮肤。终于，一天晚上，我冲她嚷道：“别再这样了——你的手太粗糙了!”母亲什么也没说。但从此之后，她再也没有在一天结束的时候用那种熟悉的方式表达她的爱。
时光流逝，许多年之后，我的思绪又回到了那个晚上。那时我想念母亲的手，想念她晚上留在我额头上的亲吻。有时这幕情景似乎很近，有时又似乎很遥远。可它总是潜伏着，时常浮现，出现在我意识中。
一年年过去，我也不再是一个小女孩，母亲也有70多岁了。那双我认为很粗糙的手依然为我和我的家庭操劳着。她是我家的医生，去药橱给我胃疼的女儿找胃药或为我儿子擦伤的膝盖敷药。她能做出世界上最美味的炸鸡…能洗掉牛仔裤上那些我永远都弄不干净的污点……
现在，我的孩子都已经长大，离开了家，爸爸也去世了。在一些特别的日子里，我经常情不自禁地走到隔壁母亲的房间和她一起度过。于是，一次感恩节前夕的深夜，我睡在年轻时的卧室里，一只熟悉的手有些犹豫地掠过我的脸，拨开我额头的头发，随后是一个吻，轻轻地印在我的眉毛上。
在我的记忆中，无数次回想起年轻时那晚我抱怨的声音：“别再这样了——你的手太粗糙了!”抓住母亲的手，我脱口而出地表示我多么后悔那晚所说的话。我以为她会像我一样记得这件事情。但妈妈不知道我在说些什么，她已经在很久以前就忘了这事，并早就原谅了我。
那晚，我带着对温柔的母亲和她体贴的双手的全新认识进入了梦乡。而我许久以来的负罪感也消失地无影无踪。
What a beautiful day for mother's day. On this day, people in all countries of the world offer their mothers the most sincere blessing. This day is a holiday for all mothers on earth. On this day, we bless our great mother together.
It's a fleeting moment, and it's more than a dozen years of life. In those years, there are always one pair who are no longer young but always silently watching your eyes behind them.
However, I sometimes do not understand my mother and leave her alone. In high school, I had to run three times every day in school and at home. The time for dinner every afternoon seems to be very tight. Several times I hurried home, but the meal was not done well. When I wait for job, I keep mumbling, never thinking about my mother's feelings. So selfish all the time, I never felt a trace of guilt.
Until that Saturday, I saw my mother's hard work. After lunch, she was busy, her face was dripping with sweat, and she had almost no time to sit on the bench. In the afternoon, she was in a hurry to cook. Her anxious eyes showed concern and concern respectively. She was cooking for her daughter. For so many years, a fixed rope seemed to have kept her at home. For decades, she has been guarding this family and serving her loved ones.
My heart is not shocked. How can I feel so sorry for my mother? That night, I could not sleep, and on the second day, I made cards myself. All my regrets were expressed, and my hands were sent to my mother. After mother finished reading, we embraced together for a long time.
Thank God, we are not great, but we also have great mothers. Today, we have a blessing for our mother.
However, it is not only mother's day that this genius wants to "care for the mother" in particular, but on the 365 day, it is mother's day every day.
Mother's Day Mother’s Day is a holiday when children honor their mothers with cards, gifts and flowers. In many countries, such as Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia and the US, people cel lebrate Mother’s Day on the second Sunday in May while many other countries of the world celebrate their own Mother’s day at different times through out the year.
One of the best ways to celebrate Mother’s Day is to give your mom the day off. Let her relax with the rest of the family doing all the housework. Usually, dad and the kids will let mom sleep late that morning as they go into the kitchen to prepare her favourite breakfast. Never forget to place a vase with a single flower on the table beside the food. The kids can pick up the flower from the garden or buy one from the shop. Arrange everything nicely before mom wakes up. Some families will carry the food and mom’s favourite sections from the newspaper to her bedroom so that mom can have breakfast in bed. Presents and cards from the kids can be handed to mom by themselves or just placed on the dining table.
After breakfast, go anywhere mom likes to go. Shopping, swimming or going on a picnic in the garden. Make a special Mother’s Day dinner or take mom out for a great meal in a famous restaurant she loves most.
Anyway ,let mom enjoy the whole day and feel your love, and then the Mother’s Day can be a good one. As Mother’s Day is around the corner, it’s time to take actions!
