    I quietly went to Betty's bed.“Wake up,my dear,”I said.“Are these the flowers you picked for me?”She smiled,“I found them by the tree.I knew you'd like them,especially the blue.”I said,“I am so sorry that I treated(对待)you that way today.”And she whispered,“Mommy,that's okay－I still love you anyway.”I kissed her and said,“I love you too and I do love the flowers.”

    That day Betty gave me a lesson on how to get along with each other in the family.I spent much time on work before and didn't realize how important family life was.I decided to do better in the future.
