今天是我的生日。昨晚我就在想不知道有没有人能想到今天是我的生日。早上我叫了孩子们起床，早饭做好，摆上桌，也没人说一声“生日快乐”的话。正失望的时 候，15岁的老大心满出来，双手拿着一张纸，笑嘻嘻地递给我：“妈妈，这是我给你的生日礼物。祝你生日快乐。”
这是一张白纸，黑字，没有任何装饰，也没有一个信封装着。但我没读几个字，眼泪就几乎掉了下来。
“亲爱的妈妈：
我的生活里，你总是在我身旁。不论我做了什么，也不论我在什么样的境况下。
虽然我能给你的只是这封信。它没有化费一分钱，但我希望你在这封信里能发现它的价值。
当我需要你的时候，你总是愿意帮助我，总是愿意为我牺牲你自己。
我不知道怎么感谢你，因为我永远无法充分表达我的感谢。
我很抱歉，有很多时候，我做错了事，惹你生气。现在我明白了为什么你不愿意我做那些我做的事。不论你做什么，你都是为了我的好处，为使我一生能有幸福的生活。
我很抱歉，当我错了，你对了的时候，我还质疑你。我希望我能记住，你总是努力帮我，你从不为自己考虑，只是为了我。
谢谢你教了我那么多。不仅教导我读书方面的，你还教了我人生的道理。
谢谢你为我煮饭，因为你爱我。----尽管我知道你最不喜欢煮饭，
谢谢你在我灵命的路上带领我-----没有你，也许上帝会看起来很远。
谢谢你关心我。在你自己状态不好的时候，在你很忙的时候，在你生病的时候，在你不顺心的时候，你都关心我。
有太多的东西我要感谢你，因为你给了我太多太多。
你永远是最棒的妈妈。
爱你的儿子”
这实在是我收到的最美，最有价值的生日礼物了。谢谢你，儿子。

Dear mom,
All my life, you've been there for me. No matter what I did, no matter what situation I was in.
Yet the best I can give you is this letter. It does not carry any monetary value, but I hope you can still find value in this.
You're always willing to help me when I need you, always willing to sacrifice for me.
I don't know how to thank you, because I can never thank you enough.
I'm sorry for the time I've angered you, when I did wrong. Now I know why you didn't want me to do what I did. whatever you do, you do it so I can live better, so I can live a happier life.
I'm sorry for questioning you when you were right, and I was wrong. I hope I can remember that you've always looking out for me, and you're not doing things for your benefit, but rather mine.
Thank you for your teachings that you've passed on to me. Not just the teachings that are related to school, but also the teachings on life and morals.
Thank you for your cooking--even though it's what you detest the most, you do it out of love for me.
Thank you for guiding me on my spiritual path--without you , God might seem farther.
Thank you for caring about me when you weren't doing well yourself--when you were busy, when you were sick, when you weren't having a good day.
There's so much I can thank you for, because you've given me so much.
You're the most awesomest mom ever :)
With love from you son.
Peter.
