My dear son,
It seems like yesterday that we brought you home from the hospital, and now you are my little man. Your father and I were very nervous being first-time parents. I have been a mother for five years. When I look back these days, I cannot help but smile.
Every milestone (里程碑) of yours was a kind of personal success for me. Your first smile your first word, your first step…As years passed, things started to get very challenging.Sometimes I found myself in very difficult situations.________The mess you made and the millions of naughty things you did really stressed me out. The times I was worried the most were when you were sick.
Now I have learnt to deal ① ________ them calmly. The one thing that helped me through the hard times was your smile — it made me forget everything and realize it was all ② ________ it.
Soon it was time for preschool (幼儿园). I prepared you as much as I could for that terrible first day, but you cried so much and I sat down and cried with you. After the first week, you felt better, but I still cried because I didn't want to let go. But I want you to enjoy yourself, enjoy your schoolwork, make good friends and most important of all be a good man. The conflict (矛盾) has troubled me for a long while.
I have learned so much from you and will continue to do so in the following years. How to forgive (原谅), how to love unconditionally (无条件地) without expecting anything in return, how to enjoy the small things in life…The list is too long…Thank you! You have made my life meaningful! Wish you good luck!
Love and always,
Mom
