Well，I’ll tell you，his mother looked at him standing there expectantly，and boy，could I see the memories flashing through her mind. So she picked up the pen，turned over the paper he’d written on，and this is what she wrote：
For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside me，No Charge.
For all the nights that I’ve sat up with you，doctored and prayed for you，No Charge.
For all the trying times，and all the tears that you’ve caused through the years，there’s No Charge.
For all the nights that were filled with dread，and for the worries I knew were ahead，No Charge.
For the toys，food，clothes，and even wiping your nose，there’s No Charge，Son.
When you add it all up，the cost of my love is No Charge.
Well，friends，when our son finished reading what his mother had written，there were great big old tears in his eyes，and he looked straight up at his mother and said：“Mom，I sure do love you. ”And then he took the pen and in great big letters he wrote：“PAID IN FULL”.
一天晚上我們的小兒子來到廚房，他媽媽正在那兒做晚飯。他遞給媽媽一張已經寫好字的紙。媽媽在圍裙上擦乾手後，看到上麵寫著：
割草 ５美元
本周打掃自己的房間 １美元
替你跑商店 ５0美分
當你購物時看護小弟弟 ２５美分
倒垃圾 １美元
拿到優異的成績單 ５美元
清理庭園並耙草、葉 ２美元
總計：１４. ７５美元
好的，我告訴你，他媽媽看到他期待地站在邊上，孩子，我怎麼能想到她靈光一閃。拿起筆，把那張紙翻過來，她寫道：
在我肚子裡懷你９個月，讓你慢慢長大，一分都不收。
。收不都分一，你護嗬料照，晚夜個每的熬你為
節章說小的新最現呈 ᴡᴛ.ᴘᴏᴏ
。收不都分一，淚的流你為及以光時熬難的起引你由來年多
。收不都分一，夜夜日日的心擔和懼恐滿充為
。子孩，收沒都分一，子鼻擦你給有還，服衣、物食、具玩
。收不都分一，愛真的部全我，時起加部全些這有所把你當
。”付償部全“：字的大大個幾了寫筆起拿他，後然”。你愛的真我，媽媽“：說媽媽他著看頭抬他，花淚的瑩晶著爍閃中睛眼的他在，些這的寫媽媽他完讀子兒的們我當，友朋
