I just returned to my hometown of Wilson Creek. I was away for 10 years. So many things have changed around here. When I left Wilson Creek, there was a small lake in the south-east of the town.

They have filled in the lake and built a large shopping center and a swimming pool there. They have also built a new post office just across from my old school.

The baseball stadium(体育场)in the north-east of Wilson Creek has also changed a lot. They have now added a new stand(看台). Now the stadium can seat a few thousand people. It looks really great.

It was the old lady's birthday. She put on her favorite blue dress and got up early to wait for the postman. Today she was sure there would be something. Myra wouldn't forget her mother's birthday, even if she hardly wrote to her.

The old lady was eighty today. Perhaps Myra might come. After all, eighty was a special birthday. Even if Myra did not come, she would send a present. The old lady was sure of that. She was excited—like a child.

The little boy, Johnnie, said he wouldn’t go out to play until the post came. "I guess you'll get lots of presents," he said, "I did when I was six."

What would she get? Perhaps a new sweater. Emm, blue is such a pretty color. Or a book, a travel book, with pictures, or a little clock, with clear black numbers...

Finally, the postman turned round the corner on his bicycle. Johnnie ran to him at once. "Granny," he shouted, "I've got your post."

"Just post ? No parcel (包裹), Johnnie?" Her heart beat fast.

"No, granny. Maybe the parcel was pretty large to come by letter post. It would come later by parcel post. You must be patient."

She tore the envelope open. It was a card with a message under the printed Happy Birthday—Buy yourself something nice with the check, Myra.

A big number is in the check! But with shaking fingers she tore the check into little bits. The pieces flied to the floor like a bird with broken wings. Her present, her lovely present.
