B
When my three children were young, there was very little time that wasn’t filled with stress, business and term papers.
“Can we go on a picnic, Mum?” my six-year-old daughter, Becky begged(恳求). “Please, please.”
I have said “no” so many times in recent months. To her surprise, I agreed. I prepared a few sandwiches and other food and called Roy at work. “Meet us at the college pond for a picnic at twelve o’clock,” I said excitedly.
Becky and I spread the tablecloth on the picnic table while Brad and Chad threw a football back and forth. In no time, the ducks joined us. Becky came with delight as the ducks begged for pieces of bread. When I got everything ready, Roy arrived.
That was the happiest meal we shared together. The gentle wind touched our face, as the sunshine warmed my heart. We felt a closeness that had been hidden by work for so many months. Having finished the food, Roy and the boys skipped rocks on the lake. Becky continued to feed the ducks, and I sat quietly on the picnic table, enjoying such a wonderful family.
Soon Roy had to go back to work. When we got into the car, Becky climbed to the front seat with me. “Here, Mum!” she said. She was holding a yellow wildflower. Happy tears came to my eyes. That night as I tucked(盖好被子) our children under their covers, I kissed their cheeks(脸颊) and realized what a wonderful life I had.
“Thank you for the picnic,” Becky whispered.
“My pleasure.” I whispered back.
Even though the kids have now grown up and moved away from home, I can still remember how I felt that day while sitting on the picnic table.
