A few years after Mom died, Dad handed me a plastic bag. That evening, I ¡¡36 ¡¡ the bag to find dozens of shells, each one ¡¡ 37 ¡¡ in white tissue paper and having Mom¡¯s handwriting.
The shells were pretty ¡¡¡¡38 ¡¡ , but to Mom, they were evidence of her endlessly magical life and ¡¡ 39 ¡¡ me of the seashore trip with her. She was 61 when she ¡¡40 ¡¡ these shells, and already showing ¡¡ 41 ¡¡ of the lung disease that would kill her the next year. We knew something was ¡¡ 42 ¡¡ and mom needed an adventure. She suggested a dinner and a movie. But two friends and I had bigger ¡¡¡¡43 ¡¡ .
Mom had been to the ocean only twice, but she ¡¡¡¡44 ¡¡ the seashore. Her kitchen was decorated with souvenirs from those two trips. I called Mom and told her that we would ¡¡¡¡45¡¡ for Jersey Shore. Mom was so¡¡ 46 that she screamed and Amber, her dog, who was sitting on her lap was ¡¡¡¡47 ¡¡ to jump onto the floor.
One of my favorite ¡¡ 48 ¡¡ on the road was a discussion about movies. Mom often got the titles wrong. ¡°Ohhhh,¡± she said, ¡°what was that movie about a teacher at the boys¡¯ school?¡± Before anyone could ¡¡ 49 ¡¡ , she shouted, ¡°I remember! The Dead Man¡¯s Poet!¡± I looked in the rearview mirror and saw a back seat full of ¡¡ 50 ¡¡ . ¡°Mom,¡± I said. ¡°You mean Dead Poets Society?¡± ¡°That¡¯s it!¡± Mom yelled. ¡¡ 51 ¡¡ filled the car.
Once we got to Stone Harbor, she began to ¡¡ 52 ¡¡ the trip, greeting strangers and spending hours gathering shells.
¡¡ The morning we left, I found her photographing every inch of her bedroom. ¡°I don¡¯t ever want to ¡¡¡¡53 ¡¡ this,¡± she said.
For a long time, Mom¡¯s shells stayed ¡¡ 54 ¡¡ in a drawer. Last month, I ¡¡ 55 them again while searching for something else. I put them in a visible place as a reminder from a mother who never lost her sense of wonder.

It was 4 o¡¯clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.
¡°This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 1 in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We¡¯ve called for a (n) 2 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.¡±
Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was 3 .
The doctor described the accident, which caused the burns. At 6 am, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers. When they 4 the charcoal (ľ̿), it burst into flames because they had sprayed (ÅçÈ÷) too much gasoline (petrol). The flames 5 my son¡¯s shirt tail and shot from his waist to his head.
6 , one of the boys was quick-minded, grasped my son, and rolled him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was not in 7 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars (ÉË°Ì). So, he had to return to college with scars.
When I was a child, my mother told my sister, who had a 10-inch, very 8 scar on her arm. ¡°Ann, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It doesn¡¯t mean they won¡¯t 9 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn¡¯t matter to you.¡±
I 10 this wisdom (ÖÇ»Û) on to my son. He took my advice to 11 and returned to school with his head held high ¡ª glad he was alive.
By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not matter, so he made the 12 to give up any plastic surgery (Íâ¿ÆÊÖÊõ).
We all have ¡°scars¡± that 13 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better.
But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same 14 standards(±ê×¼). Put your imperfections out of your 15 and concentrate (¼¯ÖÐ) on what you value within yourself, and your beauty will shine through.

I have always believed the saying , ¡°Any man can be a father, but it 31 someone special to be a dad.¡± This is true. Since the 32 of my son, Joshua, things have changed a lot in my life, but the 33 have been good! My wife and I have been through many 34 moments which have made both of us stronger.
My son was born with a serious breathing problem and he couldn¡¯t keep his 35 down. He was put on several different medications, 36 he did not get any better. My wife and I were both told many times by people that Joshua 37 he was born early; he had not 38 much weight since he was born.
As time progressed his regular doctor 39 my wife and me to visit Dr. Eid, a specialist in Louisville. He was 40 by my son¡¯s condition and so we were sent to Louisville¡¯s Children¡¯s Hospital . Joshua 41 many different checkups. The 42 spent there was very demanding for my wife and me. But we did make it 43 . Our son Joshua was diagnosed (Õï¶Ï) with asthma (Ïø´) , and with acid reflux syndrome (Ëá»ØÁ÷×ÛºÏÖ¢). After the treatment, his 44 began to improve slowly.
Joshua is 1 year and 1 month old now and his progress has been 45 --- he is up to 27 pounds now. I keep telling my wife that if he keeps 46 like this he might become a football _____47 someday. There is a saying that has 48 me get through these troublesome times, ¡°Problems will either 49 you or break you.¡± When you think the 50 hours are upon you, remember the dawn is just in sight.
