That May, I decided to plan something special for my third-grade children on Mother's Day. I asked the students to talk about how to 1 our mothers. We practiced singing songs and giving gifts before Mother's Day. I felt very excited when I learned that every mother would come. I 2 invited my own mother.
The big day finally arrived. Each child lined up at our classroom door, 3 the arrival （到达） of his or her mom. As it got closer to the starting time, Jimmy looked so 4 because his mother hadn't arrived yet.
I walked over to him. "Jimmy" I said, "Could you keep my mother company （陪伴）? You know, I'm a little busy."
Jimmy said "Yes". He sent her the 5 I'd made just like we'd practiced the day before. They were having a good 6 when I looked over. I was very happy the activity 7 with a big success.
Three years later, I took my six-grade students out for a field trip, 8 them was Jimmy. The day before, I'd asked all of them to write down what they planned to do in in their notebooks. After we returned to school, I collected their notebooks and checked if 9 finished it.
When I came to Jimmy's page, he'd written, "Do you remember our Mother's Day in the 10 grade, Mrs. Mara? I do! Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too."
Later when Jimmy came to get his notebook, I told him. "In fact, I want to say thanks because you made my mother's day."
