It is almost ten o’clock now. Mum and dad have had a rest in the bedroom. It is quiet around. I am sitting in front of the window alone. The air after rain is especially cool and refreshed. When I opened the window, a spring breeze passed by my face softly. It is really so fine and comfortable. Looking at the soft moon and the shining stars on the sky, I am lost in thoughts. Tomorrow is Mother’s Day---a so special day for all the mothers in the world. My mind flashed back to some scenes of the past.
Dear mum,
I won’t forget that it is you who brought me into this so wonderful world after ten months of hard pregnancy.
I won’t forget that it is you who brought me up with so many difficulties in the past twenty five years. I still remembered Grandmother ever told me when I was eleven years old, “feier, my darling, it is really not easy for your mother to bring you up. When you were still a baby, you got a so strange disease which is called ‘Summer Fever’. Whenever the summer came, you would have a low fever (about 38 to 38.5 degree) which would last until the autumn arrived. You were sick and cried day and night, not willing to eat anything. Your mother was so sad and worried, taking you to see the doctor all over the country day after day. However doctors also had no effective drugs for it and said only when your body immunity became mature, you would be well. You were so thin at that time, but your mother was much thinner than you. She often cried when herself alone but smiled to you and all of us. However, in such a worse situation, your father couldn’t stay with you and your mother. He had to defend our country as a soldier in a faraway city---DaLian. Only when you got well and became fat and white at three years old, your mother smiled in hearted. Remember, feier, you should give your deepest love to your dear mother no matter in what conditions. ”
Dear mum, when I spoke my first word---“mum” to you, you were really so happy and kissed me deeply. When I gained my first red star in the kindergarten, you held me in your arms and said with a happy smile on your face, “Our feier is so clever and excellent.”…
I still remember that night I was lying in the bed, not so clear, with a high fever of almost 40 degree. I could hardly open my eyes but I could feel clearly that a so familiar and warm hand was touching my face gently all night long, with a gentle voice around my ears “My dear feier, don’t be afraid. Mum is here with you. Nothing can hurt you even a little.”
I still remember that when I was still in middle school, I had my first love with a boy of our class. When you got to know about it, you didn’t scold me at all but had a heart to heart talk with me. I won’t forget your sincere and kindhearted words forever. “feier, mum believe you. The friendship between you and the little boy is really so pure and innocent that you should keep it for a long time even forever. But you are still too young to understand the meaning of true love. The most important and essential thing for you to do now is not to love but to learn more knowledge and realize your beautiful dream in the end---becoming a “white angel”, isn’t it? When you grow up indeed, you are sure to get your true love.”
I still remember once I failed in an examination. When I plucked my courage to tell you about it, I was really so sad and depressed, being afraid that you would be angry and disappointed at me. However, you didn’t scold me but helped me to find the reason of my failure patiently. You said to me with a trust smile on your face, “Don’t lose heart, feier, everyone would meet with frustration or suffer setbacks in his or her life. It is not horrible to fall down but it is horrible to never get up again after falling down. Mum will support you at any time. I believe our feier is good and clever enough to make a success in the end. Just get up at once and face the challenge with smile, will you?”
……
Dear mum, from the every beginning, you have supported me with your love. You gave me the confidence to try, the inspiration to dream and the strength to believe in myself; you gave me the tender care and sincere understanding. Your love is delicate like a flower, strong like a mountain, reliable like the seasons and inspiring like the dawn. I won’t forget your loving gentleness forever, mum, although it seems invisible, inaudible or in-touchable. It is perceptible by my heart. It is the crystallization of kindness, love, good nature and tender care. It gives me strength and power. It is the source of beauty.
Dear mum, I am really so graceful to have a mother like you. Tomorrow is Mother’s Day. I know nothing in the world can express my love to you. But on this special day, I still want to send you a colorful bunch of fresh wildflowers. I want to have a dance with you and dad in the graceful and loving music. “Dear mum, Thanks for all what you have done to me in the past twenty five years. Thanks for your love, your tender care and nurturing, your understanding and inspiration to me. Happy Mother’s day, mum. Wish you happy, healthy and beautiful everyday. I will love you forever.” Maybe you have got into your beautiful dream now and can not hear what I said. But I still keep saying this again and again in my mind.
A breeze passed by my face softly again. The moon is shedding cool light over the land and the stars are shinning with smiles…dear mum, it is really difficult to imagine my life without you, just like a morning without the sun, a night without the stars. I will love you forever.
Also wish all the mothers in the world happy, healthy and beautiful forever.
feier
