That Sunday morning I awoke to a quiet house, with warm sun streaming through the windows. I  41  where my husband had gone with our two daughters, Kira, 4, and Sophie,9 months. As I was relaxing in bed, _42  the  peace, Kira suddenly burst 43  the bedroom door.

 “Look outside, Mommy!” she ordered. There, 44  ,David was digging a hole. Next to him 45  a fragile little tree 46 roots were wrapped in burlap (粗麻布) . “It's a magnolia(木兰) tree,” Kira said, 47  I didn't need to__48  . I raised the window and called out to David. “Happy Mother's Day,” he said. It was.  Although I 49 my mother any longer, I had her  50 , and each year since, I've had her enthusiasm. Now when___51  pull up to our house one bright spring day, I say to my daughters, “Oh, look, the magnolia's about to bloom.” And  when it 52 , we admire its beauty and use it as a 53 to talk about my mother and her  _54 flowers.  

By the time Mother's Day 55 , the petals(花瓣) have usually fallen from the branches and the tree _56  in the yard with just its green leaves. But each year it has become stronger, just as I have.  _57  instead of a day to miss my mother, Mother's Day has become a time 58   the fact that I am a mother, teaching my daughters  59  things that my mother taught me: to appreciate the small things that  60  life so beautiful.   270w
