The House Fairy

As young parents, my husband and I felt that at age 6 and 8, our children were old enough to be cleaning their rooms and making their beds. But they thought   36  . My complaints, repeating myself, even self-justified shouting were landing on   37    ears. I felt frustrated (沮丧的) , and very often a whole afternoon’s scolding would end with their   38   into tears, I realized I needed to   39   my methods of “mothering”.

One day while they were at school, I had great fun   40   their rooms. On their desks, in plain   41  , I left the cards: “Dear Bill (the other card was   42   to Sarah), your room was messy this morning and I’m sure you like it clean. Love, the House Fairy. ”   43   arriving back, the children were   44   excited to receive the little note from the House Fairy. The next day, their rooms were fairly tidy. Sure enough, there was another note from the House Fairy         45   for them, thanking them for their nice “gift” of a clean room and   46   asking them to play a certain violin   47  . Each day, thank--you notes would be worded differently to keep the ideas   48  .

Sometimes the House Fairy would propose a little   49  : “If you can finish your homework today and   50   it before dinner, I’ d like to watch a particular television program with you tonight. ” Sometimes some colored markers or other little items would be left in   51 of jobs especially well done the day   52  .

53   I can’t remember how long “the House Fairy” continued leaving her love notes. When they were no longer age appropriate (合适的), we used various versions of Post-Its. The bathroom mirror became the   54   centre of our home. Appointments, notices about visiting relatives, lesson schedules, and changes in plans could be posted.

We all benefited from and   55   the idea of sharing reminders and daily details of life through notes. I believe the true legacy of the House Fairy notes survives in our frequent and enjoyable communication.

I hadn't heard Ernie talk much about his father.One day I worked 35  my courage to ask him."I'm really  36  by something," I said."I know your father was  37  the only one to raise you.What on earth did he do that you became such a special person?"

       Ernie sat quietly and  38  for a few moments. Then he said, "From my earliest __39  as a child until I left home at 18, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, ' I love you, son.' "

Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to  40  Al as a failure. He had not left any material possessions behind.But he had been a kind loving father, and he left behind one of the finest, most giving men I have ever known.

Night after night, my mother came to my bed, even long after my childhood years. She would   21  down and push my long hair out of the way, and then kiss my forehead.

 I don’t remember when it first started  22  me-her hands pushing my hair that way, for they felt work-worn and rough  23  my young skin. Finally , one night, I shouted out at her, “Don’t do that any more-your hands are too rough!” she made no  24  and left quietly.

But never again did my mother do it with that familiar expression of her  25  .

With the passing years, my   26  returned to that night time after time. By then I   27  my mother’s hands and her goodnight kiss. Sometimes the incident seemed very  28  , sometimes far away, but always it was  29  in the back of my mind.

The years have passed, and I’m not a little girl any more. Mom is in her seventies, and those hands I once  30  to be so rough are still doing things for me and my family.

Now, Mom no longer has Dad and lives  31  . One night on Thanksgiving Eve, I found myself  32  to her house to spend the night with her. As I slept in the bedroom of my youth, a familiar hand hesitantly ran across my face to  33  the hair from my forehead. Then a   34  , ever so gently , touched my forehead. I burst into tears.

In my memory, thousands of times, I   35  the night my young voice complained. Catching Mom’s hand in hand, I told her how  36  I was for that night. I thought she’d remember  37  I did. But Mom didn’t know what I was talking about. She had already forgotten and   38  long ago.

That night, I fell asleep with a new  39  for my gentle mother and her caring hands. And the guilt that I had carried around for so long was   40  to be found.

A teacher of the English language told me that meksikatsi was not called meksikatsi, even though that is what   48  people have called that bird for thousands of years．Meksikatsi, he said, was really “duck”．I was very  49  with English．I could not understand it．First of all, the bird did not look like “duck”, and when it made a    50   , it did not sound like “duck”, I was even more   51   when I found out that the meaning of the verb “to duck” came from the bird．

As I   52  to understand English better, I understand that it made a great deal of    53   , but I never forgot that meksikatsi made a different kind of meaning．I   54   that languages are not just different words for the same things but totally different    55   , totally different ways of experiencing and looking at the world．

    Seated，she gave me  30  ．“I’m on my way to a hospice(临终关怀医院)．I'm in no hurry．Can you drive through downtown?” I saw her eyes shining with  31  in the rearview mirror．“I don’t have any  32  left．”she continued．“The doctor says I don’t have very long．”
