My son is 7 years old and he was a show to be put on at his school. He was playing the role of an angel. On the evening before the show, he asked me, “Mom, can we angels?” As usual, I seized(抓住)the to teach him to be positive and I said, “Yes, but only those who are perfect, and think and talk positively can.” He asked, “You must have seen them then?”

I was for a few seconds, not knowing what to say. I was touched by his that his mother was a perfect person. He looked into my eyes, a positive answer. I chose to be with him and told him, “No. I’ve not been a good person all the time.” I was almost to admit this to him. I thought that his of a perfect mother would now surely be torn into pieces. But he it positively and said, “It’s all right. You know to try to be better from now on.” I smiled as I replied, “ That’s . Sometimes, we might make a , but when we do, we must always try to do better.”
