Chapter 46 Mom only takes zero dollars

There is a law in Texas, USA: Children who have reached the age of fourteen must physically share housework with their parents, such as washing dishes, mopping the floor, and mowing the lawn. On a Sunday night, Tom, a bright boy, wrote a bill to his mother: Tom helps his mother buy food in the supermarket, and his mother pays five dollars; Tom gets up and makes the quilt by himself, and his mother pays two dollars; Tom cleans the floor, and his mother pays three dollars; Tom is a good obedient boy, and his mother pays ten dollars.Total: twenty dollars. When Tom had finished writing, he pressed the note on the table, and went to bed.After seeing the note, the mother who was sweating profusely smiled tolerantly, added a few lines on it, and put it beside Tom's pillow.

Tom woke up and saw a bill like this: Mom has worked hard to conceive Tom for ten months, and Tom pays zero dollars; mom teaches Tom to walk and talk, and Tom pays zero dollars; mom cooks delicious food for Tom every day, and Tom pays zero dollars; mom accompanies Tom every weekend In Children's Paradise, Tom pays zero dollars; mother prays for Tom every day, hoping that he will become a cute little boy like an angel, and Tom pays zero dollars.Total; zero dollars. This note is still treasured by Tom.It tells Tom that true love cannot be measured. Why is my mother so generous, because she loves too much; why is my mother so tolerant, because she loves too deeply.When we have as much love as our mothers in our hearts, we will only ask for zero dollars.
