I stayed at home with my 5-year-old daughter Lily. When I was reading some magazines, Lily played in the living room. But after a while I noticed nothing but　 31　　 .　　　　　　

She had never been so quiet. Was she 　32　 　? I asked what she was doing. The 　33　 　finally came after I 　34　 　my question three times. I heard “Nothing”. Never could I believe she just stayed there and kept quiet. So I walked into the living room. She hurried off. I 　35　 　her to turn around but she　 36　 . I got a little angry. “Young lady,” I said, “turn around!”

　 37　 　she turned toward me. In her hand was my wife’s new lipstick, only a little 　38　 . Besides her lips, every inch of her face was covered with bright red.

As she looked up at me with 　39　 　eyes, I really got angry. I was about to 　40　 　at her so that she would know what a mistake she had made.　 41　 　before I could shout, I noticed the big letters she had written on her white skirt with the lipstick, “I’M 　A　 PERFECT　 ANGEL!”

Something strange 　42　 me. I looked back at her red face. This time, instead of seeing a 　43　 girl, I saw a little angel that I had almost missed!

“Lily, I heard you speak to the toys just now. I guess you were teaching them how to use the lipstick. But should an angel use her mom’s lipstick like this?” Lily lowered her head, “Sorry. I won’t do it again.” I smiled. “Go and wash your face and let’s get a new　 44　 for mom.”

Every child is an angel. I felt 　45　 that I didn’t hurt the angel through treating her mistake in a right way.
