Something interested, happened to my parents and me. I stayed up late on Saturday’s night, so the next morning I didn’t woke up until my father called me to get up and play the piano. With my eyes closing, I begged to sleep more. My father had no choices but to leave my bedroom. Soon, my mother came in but asked me to get up to play football. I immediate jumped out of my bed, dressed up myself and ran away with my football. I didn’t know what my father would feel when he returned my bedroom and found I had left.

As a senior 3 student, I have been busy with my study and seldom does any housework. I decided to give the rooms a thoroughly cleaning to surprise my parents on last Sunday. Firstly, I collected newspapers, books, and snacks scattered in the rooms and put it in place. Then I wiped the dust off all the furnitures. After that, I sweep and mopped the floors. My parents were quite surprise to see all the rooms were neat and tidy. Tired as I was, I felt sense of achievement when I saw satisfaction in their eyes. Doing these chores can help me not only improve some basic life skills and understand my parents daily efforts better.

With Thanksgiving Day drawn near, I think I have many reason to be thankful to my mom. Eighteen years ago, she goes through a lot to give birth to me and gave me the chance to enjoy this beautiful world. When I was born, she has been taking good care of me all the time. Though she is a considerate parent, but she never spoils me. Whenever I come across some difficulties, she always encourages me handle the problems proper by myself. With her help and encouragement, I become a independent, confident and outgoing high school student. Now that I am a grow-up, it’s my turn to look after him.
