My mother is an illiterate. Even though she always get along with our neighbors,but we used to quarrel a lot when I was young.  Frankly speaking, I didn’t like her before. When I made the mistake, she always bawled out abuse. I know she hate me because of I am not her natural daughter. But I did not understand why she would want to adopt me because she already had three sons and one daughter.

It’s a riddle about me.

Several years later, I left my hometown and studied at country town. My mother never visited me when I was in high school. However, she would buy a lot of food which I like to eat for me when I came back. However, I didn’t move. I still thought we live in different worlds.

It was a sunny Saturday. I went home as usual. When I arrived at home, my parents were about to have supper. Then, I started to wash my hands and went to dining room. Suddenly, my mother squatted herself down and cleaned my shoes. “Look, you just like a baby. Do you know how to take care of yourself? How old you are, you are seventeen!” she said. For a brief moment, I can’t say anything. I only felt my mother loves me deeply, always......

From then on, I completely changed my mind. I started to accept this special love which from my mother. I know I almost miss it for 17 years. How stupid I was!! I was so guilt and regret since I did hurt to my mother. But my mother didn’t mind. She once said, “You are my kids, my proud, and the best gift from God. I’m satisfied.”

At moment, I still work but my mind is flying. I miss my mother very much. I wonder if she is ok and I am itching to hear her voice. Mom, you have your special place in my heart. I promise I will cherish you very so much. And let you and dad live a good life.
