When I was little, my mother sold flowers in London. She couldn't 1me at home, so I had to go with her. As I grew older, I began to 2 her and I really enjoyed it.
Things changed (改变) when I was 14. My grandma3 me a book for Christmas. It was about making candles. I loved it so much that I spent all my free time on 4 of all shapes and sizes. I made hundreds of them.
One day, my mother was ill so I had to go to the 5 by myself. I decided to take some candles with me and see if I could sell them. To my 6, they were sold out in 20 minutes! The next week, my mum gave me some 7 to buy some wax (蜡) to make more candles. They were sold out quickly, too. Nine months later, we decided to stop 8 flowers. My mum and I couldn't make enough candles during the week, so some of my school friends started to help us, I 9 them one pound for every candle, and we sold them for much more money. It was 10 and my friends worked with me happily.
When I was 22, my uncle lent me some money and I opened my first shop.
