愛你的母親

一直都在聽阿牛的一首歌。他唱道：

\"兩斤蒜頭兩塊一，馬鈴薯賣一塊七。

再給我辣椒和一只雞，我的孩子很愛吃咖喱……

茶醋油鹽米，炒一碟菜，油要放幾滴，煮一頓飯要用多少心……

媽媽的愛有多少斤，誰能數(shù)得清，答案寫在她臉上的皺紋里。\"

幾分詼諧，幾分沉重。

愛你的媽媽，愛她勝過愛你自己。

因為孩子無論做什么，也不夠報答媽媽的愛意。

讀一讀這首英文詩，你會明白，媽媽為你付出了什么，而你又該如何回報這份深情！

當你13歲的時候，她建議你該剪頭發(fā)了，

你笑話她沒品位，以此來感謝她；

當你14歲的時候，她付錢讓你參加一個月的夏令營遠游，

你卻不給她寫一個字，以此來報答她；

當你15歲的時候，她下班回來，期待你的擁抱，

你鎖上自己臥室的門，以此來感謝她；

當你16歲的時候，她教你開車，

你卻抓住每一次機會偷偷開車，以此來報答她

當你17歲的時候，她正在等一個重要的電話，

你整夜占用電話，以此來感謝她；

當你18歲的時候，她為你的高中畢業(yè)而激動流淚，

你卻出去狂歡，黎明才歸家，以此來報答她；

當你19歲的時候，她替你交大學學費，開車送你去學校，替你提行李，

你為了避免在朋友面前尷尬，在宿舍外就對她說\"再見\"，以此來感謝她；

當你20歲時，她問你是否在追求某個人，

你卻對她說\"這不關(guān)你事\"，以此來報答她；
