It started 30 years ago with a squirrel. A few months after I had moved into a downtown 1 my next-door neighbor, Nicole Figaro, knocked, asking for help with a squirrel that had gotten into her flat.
I frightened the unexpected 2 away and made a new friend. Soon Nicole was inviting me over for dinner or 3 home-made food at my door. When I went to my beach house, Nicole helped 4 my mail and water my plants. And when she traveled as a flight attendant, I did the same for her. Wherever she went, she’d 5 to bring me wonderful gifts, but her smile has been the greatest of all.
In 1997, I had a lovely child and it was Nicole who took care of me and him. Years later, I returned the favour. I helped out when her husband was sick, 6 her and giving her support. More and more, we drew inspiration from each other.

Something that I learnt from both my parents was the importance of having respect（尊重）for other people. I remember one day when we were travelling on a bus and 1 sat down while other people were standing. My mother shouted at me “ 2 immediately! You have young legs and you don’t need to sit down.” At the time I felt embarrassed about being told of 3 , but now I understand. I think children nowadays have 4 that respect and it really makes me angry if I see children sitting down while 5 people are standing.
One area in which we had a lot of rules was table 6 . For example, we weren’t allowed to start our meal 7 the oldest person had started. We had to say “thank you” when our food was 8 , and eat everything on our plates before we could 9 the table. We couldn’t make any noise when eating. Worse than that, we were only 10 to have sweets at the weekend, as a special 11 if we had been good.
Although my upbringing（养育）was perhaps a bit 12 compared with modern children, I’m very thankful to my parents for giving me a clear 13 in life. Even though I was sometimes 14 , I think it has made me a better person.

On that day, I was visiting you in your city. As we were about to cross a 7 street that was filled with traffic, you took my hand suddenly and shouted, “Hang on to me, Mom,” then 8 me safely across. At that moment, I realized that my boy became a man and our roles changed. We still needed each other, but in different ways.
My dear son, you have taught me to depend on 9 just as you once depended on me. The loving hands “touch” us, even if we live miles away. That’s because there is always a silent 10 between us that says, “I am here and you are not alone.”

“Simply avoid her.” Abby listened closely, as I continued, “If she says any more 1 things to you, I’ll go to your teacher. I’ll make sure you are never in a(n) 2 where you have to sit next to her again.”
At that time, Allyson, my then eight-year-old, came to 3 us and listened to every word. Neither of my daughters interrupted (打断) as I finished my heartfelt speech, filled with 4 wisdom. Then, as I was telling them what I thought right, Allyson’s real words of 5 came about. “Mom,” she said, “I was just thinking. Maybe Abby should be that girl’s 6 so that she can bear (容忍) her. In that way, she can let that girl see forgiveness (谅解) and kindness through her.”
Hmm, I became the 7 . At that moment, I realized that although I was wearing the “mother’s hat”, the “hat” certainly didn’t make me 8 all the time. In fact, I wanted to pull that hat over my face and hide myself so that they couldn’t see my embarrassed (难为情的) look.
“Yes, that’s a good point,” I commented (评论), 9 a half smile at my girls. “Abby, you deal with this situation the way you think is right.” “OK,” she said, giving me a quick hug (拥抱) before walking out of the door and off to school. “Bye, Mom!” Allyson called, following her big sister to go out of the door.
I was left alone-in my slippers (拖鞋). In those following 10 moments, I was lost in thought. I did feel 11 my two amazing daughters-small in size but big in heart. Sometimes our children have great lessons to teach us- 22 we are willing to listen.
That lesson came more than ten years ago, and I’ll never forget how much I have learned from my children.
