My mother was a (清洁工) in our school canteen(食堂) when I was in the middle school. At that time she was such an embarrassment(使人难堪的人) to me not only because of her job but also because of her (外貌). She had only one eye. Every time I saw her in my school, I pretended(假装) not to see her and ran away.
After (毕业), I got a good job in another city. Then I got (结婚) and had two kids. I told my family that my parents had been (去世的)，so they never saw my mother, even her photo. But one year later, I got a letter, it read:
My dear son Jeff.
I'm sorry to disturb(打扰) you, but I really miss you all the time. I'm (恐怕) that I will have no chance to see you again.
I'm sorry that I was always an embarrassment to you when you were growing up. However, I had no (选择). When you were very young, you got into an (事故) and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn't stand that you would have to grow up with one eye. So I...
I am (自豪) of my son who is enjoying his beautiful world for me with that eye.
With all my love to you!
Mom
After reading the letter, I couldn't help (哭).
