For years I wanted a garden.I’d spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together.
But then we had Matthew and Marvin and the twins Alisa and Alan and then Helen.I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.
Money was not enough.Neither was time.Often when my children were little
one of them would want something that cost too much and I’d have to say “Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn't grow on trees you know.”
Finally all the children got through high school and college and were off on their own.I started thinking again about a garden.
Then one spring morning on Mother’s Day I was working in my kitchen.Suddenly I looked out of the window and there was a new tree planted right in my yard.There were things blowing around on it. Then I put my glasses on—and I couldn’t believe what I saw.
There was a money tree in my yard!
I went outside to look.It was true! There were dollar bills(帐单) one hundred of them hanging all over that tree.There was also a note among them “Thank you for your time Mom.We love you!”
Later my children bought me tools ornaments a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books.A new page started in my life.
That was three years ago.My garden’s now very pretty just like I wanted.When I go out and take care of my flowers I don’t seem to miss my children as much as I once did.It feels like they’re right there with me.Now every year when winter comes I look out of my window and think of the flowers I’ll see next spring in my little garden.I think about what my children did for me and I get tears in my eyes—every time.
I’m still not sure that money grows on trees.But I know love does!
