As my kids' summer vacation comes to an end,I find myself wanting to spend every moment with them.This past week I've been feeling guilty every time I schedule something that doesn't involve them,so I haven't been doing much for myself.But the other day,I had a beauty treatment that I'd scheduled for over a month.I was so looking forward to it when I scheduled it,but as it approached I thought about cancelling it.
As I was leaving home,I told my kids how I was going to miss them and that I would hurry back.My daughter stopped her game,looked up at me and said, "Oh,Mother,just go.You need to get your mood up again. " "Getting your mood up again" is my daughter's way of telling me to leave home and come back with a better version of myself because it was taking a heavy toll on her too.
In that one sentence,she was telling me that she noticed I'd been running on fumes(煩惱).She was letting me know she could feel my moodiness and irritation that stemmed from not taking the time for me because I was trying to so hard to be present for her and her brothers.
It occurred to me that I'd been neglecting care for myself because I thought my kids should come first.However,in reality,my kids just want me to be happy,even if that happiness means I'm not with them all the time.Our kids would rather have parents who are smiling and feel somewhat rested than spend their days listening to their parents sigh and complain.

3.Dear Laura,
Thanks for letting us to stay at your seaside house. Now, you might have heard from your neighbors about which happened on Saturday evening. When I was out a walk, my younger son, Tom, played football before your house. He made so many noise that the neighbors got quite angrily. Even worse, Tom broke one of the window of Mr. Wilson's house. Tom and I apologized to all the neighbors for the unhappy happenings, but promised to have the broken window repair soon. Tom said that we would not do such silly things any more. I am glad that your neighbors had forgiven us. They are really nice people.
Yours,
Betty發(fā)布:2025/1/30 8:0:1組卷:12引用:2難度:0.5
