Jenny Gordon was a very kind and beautiful woman.Before she 1 , many young men were in love with her.Many of them 2 to her, telling her how wonderful she was, how much they loved her and each of them wanted to be her 3 .Jenny kept all these letters.She tied them up with a red ribbon(缎带)and put them away in an old box.
She 4 read them because her husband took good care of her, however, they were a part of her 5 and she did not want to throw them away.
Jenny had a 6 , Sue.Sue was six.One day, a friend of hers was in hospital.Jenny wanted to go to see her.Of course it was 7 to take Sue there with her.So she had to leave Sue 8 for two hours.
"Now be a good girl, "she said."Play 9 in the yard.If you need anything, go to the lady next door and she'll 10 you."
When she returned home, she asked Sue, "Have you 11 a good girl?"
"Oh, yes Mommy."Sue said.
"What did you do while was 12 ?"Jenny asked her.
"I played mailman, "Sue told her.
" 13 could you play mailman, darling?"Jenny asked."You didn't have any letters.""Oh, yes, I did, Mommy,"Sue said."I 14 some in an old box upstairs.They were tied up with a red ribbon.I put one in every mailbox in the 15 .Wasn't I a good girl?"
I didn’t cry when I learned I was the parent of a disabled child.I just sat stil and didn’t say anything.

My husband and I were anxious about the day.I wanted to let my child stay home! But my heart wouldn’t let me off that easily.So I 7 a pale, unwiling Jenny onto the school bus.
At the kindergarten, I was quite worried because of her 8 action, Jenny would probably hold up her team.The game went wel until it was time for the sack(麻袋)race.Surely Jenny would find it 9 .Now each child had to climb into a sack, jump to the finishing line, return and climb out of the sack.I noticed Jenny standing near the end of her line of players.
But as it was her turn to join, a change took place in her 10 .The talest boy behind Jenny placed his hands on her waist(腰).Two other boys 11 in front of her.The moment the player before Jenny stepped out from the sack, the two boys 12 the sack suddenly and kept it open while the tal boy lifted Jenny and 13 her into it.A girl nearby took her hand and supported her 14 Jenny got her balance.Then she jumped forward, smiling and proud.In the cheers of the teachers, schoolmates and parents, I silently thanked the warm, understanding people in life who made it 15 for my disabled daughter to be like her felow human beings.Then I finaly cried.
