Night after night, she came to help me
sleep, even long after my childhood years.
I don't remember {#blank#}1{#/blank#} it first started
making me a little angry- my mom's hands pushing my hair that way. But it
really made me {#blank#}2{#/blank#} ( comfortable), for they felt rough (粗糙的) against my young skin. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (final), one night, I shouted at
her, "Don't do that anymore. Your hands are too rough!" She didn't
say anything, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} she never did it again.
Years later, I missed my mother's hands and
her goodnight kiss on my face. I'm not a little girl any more. My mom is {#blank#}5{#/blank#}
her mid-seventies，and her rough hands are
still doing things for my family and me.
Now my own children have grown up. It was late
on Thanksgiving Eve. As I slept in my bedroom, a familiar hand ran across {#blank#}6{#/blank#}
(I) face to push the hair from my head. Then a kiss, ever so {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(soft),
touched my brow(额头).
{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (take) my mom's hand, I told her
how sorry I was for the night I shouted at her. But my mom didn't know what I
was talking about. She had forgotten it long ago.
That night, I fell {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (sleep) with the
new appreciation(感激) for my mother's caring hands.
And {#blank#}10{#/blank#} guilt(内疚) that I had carried around for so
long was nowhere to be found.
