today is mother’s day. i know some of my classmates are going to help their mothers with the housework, others .are going to buy some flowers for their mothers. i want to say to her that i love her very much. but as a boy, it is a bit difficult for me to show my heart. i think only girls can do that.
my mother is very kind. she takes care of me day and night.
she spends little money, but buys anything for me that i need.
this time i must show my love. i am going to give her a card and write like this, "i love you, mother!" i am going to put it under her pillow.
