全职工作的母亲,大女儿明年将从一所全美最顶尖的高校毕业, 二女儿十六岁,十一年级, 正是反叛的年龄.母女间有过冲突,有过同时气哭的日子,但母女关系很好, 理解,沟通,信任是关键. 有时还得给孩子一定的自由,就象双手捧沙子一样,抓得太紧,反而掉得更多!
今年母亲节,我一大早要出差,小女儿6点起床为我作中国早餐(稀饭,咸菜,鸡蛋),大女儿从学校送来以下邮件.
Hi Mom!
Happy Mother's Day! I didn't call home today because I think you are traveling to Canada, so I will send you an email instead. I wish I were home to celebrate with you, but hope you are having a good time without me anyway!
Thank you for always being there for me - I know that I can talk to you about anything and you always have great advice :) I'm very lucky because I know a lot of my friends don't necessarily have great moms like you. I always brag about you and talk about what an amazing wonder woman you are! You have a successful career, are a great mother, look great for your age, and are awesome at cooking! I don't know how you have time for everything :) Hope you like my present!
