Then, he spent hours and hours on it  24  it looked almost new. I was so  25  of him that I bought him the shiniest helmet（头盔） and riding outfit（全套装备）.

I could  26  wait for him to open up his gift. In fact, I barely slept the night before. Upon wakening, I went to the kitchen to  27  the coffee, tea, and morning goodies. In the living room was a beautiful keyboard with a  28  : “To my wonderful mother, all my love, your son.”

I was so  29  . It had been a long-standing joke in our family that I wanted a piano so that I could  30  lessons. “Learn to play the piano, and I’ll get you one” was my husband’s  31  .

I stood there shocked, crying a river, asking myself how my son could  32  this expensive gift.

Of course, the  33  awoke, and my son was thrilled with(对…感到激动) my reaction. Many kisses were  34  , and I immediately wanted him to  35  my gift.
