For years I wanted a garden. I'd spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together.
But then we had Mathew, and Marvin, and the twins -- Alisa and Alan, and then Helen. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.
Money was not enough. Neither was time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, I'd have to say,"Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn't grow on trees, you know."
Finally, all the children got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about a garden.
Then, one spring morning, on Mother's Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I looked out of the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. There were things blowing around on it. Then I put my glasses on and I couldn't believe what I saw. There was a money tree in my yard!
I went out to look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, hanging all over that tree. There was also a note among them, "Thank you for your time, Mom. We love you!"
Later, my children bought me tools, ornaments(装饰品), a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books. A new page started in my life.
That was three years ago. My garden is now very pretty, just like I wanted. When I go out and take care of my flowers, I don't seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they're right there with me. Now every year when winter comes, I look out of my window and think of the flowers I'll see next spring in my little garden. I think about what my children did for me, and I get tears in my eyes -- every time.
I'm still not sure that money grows on trees. But I know love does!
