The Giving Tree

I met and heard about this book several years ago,but can't remember theexact time ,it would be whenI was ateenager.

This morning Isaw this book in my bathroom in English version ( maybe this would be the original paper ) incidentally.

The book is covered with natural green color and there arepictures of big lovely apple tree and young boy.

This story has been well known to everybody.

The young boy requested a friend with playing, moneyto build house, boat to makejourneyand then place to sit and relax after all....

Can I be a giving tree as a parent?

I don't think it's possible.

When I saw this book, I thought of my mom.

Of course, my mom is now old and weak lady over seventies who sometimes needs helper to care about her.

But, she was once apowerful and warm-hearted mom, our family'sshelter from the wind.

I have two sons.

They're young , they have to much to learn.

I wanna be like my mom when I was young girl, so generous and warm- hearted...

It's so difficult job for me.....

Sometimes my husband told me "You hold the key to my son's fate, You should sacrifice your study time or evening time to our sons. that's your priority ..."

What do you think of ?
