摘要:I was a single parent of four small children, working at a low-paid job. Money was always tight, but we had a roof over our heads, 36 on the table, clothes on our backs, and if not a lot, always 37 . Not knowing we were poor, my kids just thought I was 38 . I’ve always been glad about that. It was Christmas time, and although there wasn’t money for a lot of gifts, we planned to celebrate with a family party. But the big 39 for the kids was the fun of Christmas shopping. They planned weeks ahead of time, asking 40 what they wanted for Christmas. Fortunately, I had saved $120 for 41 to share by all five of us. The big day arrived. I gave each kid a twenty-dollar bill and 42 them to look for gifts of about four dollars each. Then everyone scattered . We had two hours to shop, then we would 43 back at the “Santa’s Workshop . Driving home, everyone was in high Christmas spirits 44 my younger daughter, Ginger, who was unusually 45 . She had only one small, flat bag with a few candies - fifty-cent candies! I was so angry, but I didn’t say anything 46 we got home. I called her into my bedroom and closed the door, ready to be angry again. This is what she told me. “I was looking around, thinking of what to buy, and I 47 to read the little cards on the `Giving Trees.’ One was for a little girl, four years old, and all she 48 for Christmas was a doll. So I took the card off the tree and 49 the doll for her. We have so much and she doesn’t have anything. I never felt so 50 as I did that day.
