Mama,

I wonder if you will ever really understand me. I ________your anger at my grades today, but Mama, I try, I really do. I think there must be something wrong with me. However much I try, I   ________manage to get it right. I want to make you happy, Mama. I want you to be as________of me as John’s mom is when he tops in the class, or Sherry’s ma is when she wins the first prize in singing. I wish I were the kind of son you could be proud of. But sadly I am not.

But, Mama, when you say I will never be a “good” person, I don’t know what you ________. Is it only good ________that make a person good or bad? Miss White says that I have beauty of   ________, but I wonder why you never notice it. I wonder how many times you noticed me helping an old neighbor cross the street, or slipping my week’s pocket money to the old beggar down the street. I thought I was doing ________to be proud of, but when I came running home to tell you about it, you just curtly nodded your head and told me to go to do my homework. I guess what I did wasn’t something very great.

Mama, I love you and wish you could be proud of me. Proud of what I am. Proud of the little things I achieve. I have no one other than you, and I want to make you happy. But I guess I am not________  enough for that. Watering grandpa’s garden every week and buying groceries for grandma isn’t as  ________as doing math. But, Mama, I wish you could understand, they’re so old and frail, I couldn’t resist offering to help them a bit.

I just wish you would understand me and be proud of me when you noticed me ________my seat in the train to an elderly lady.

Your sad son

Mike
