For years I wanted a flower garden.I'd spend hours different things I could plant.I believe they would look nice together.

But then we had Mattew.And Marvin.And the twins,.Alisa and Alan.And then Helen.Five children! I was too raising them to grow a garden.

Money was tight (拮据),as well as time.Often when my children were little,one of them would want something expensive.And I'd have to say,“Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn’t on trees,you know.”

,all five got through high school and college (大学) and were off on their own.I started thinking again about having a garden.Then,one morning on Mother’s Day, I was working in my kitchen.Suddenly, I looked out of the window and there was a tree,planted right in my garden.I thought it be a weeping willow (垂柳),because I saw things around on all its branches (树枝).Then I put my on and I couldn’t believe what I saw.There was a money tree in my garden!

I went outside to have a look.It was. ! There were dollar bills all over that tree.

There was also a note in the tree.It ,“We all love you,Morn.”
