Christmas Gifts

I’m not sure if I should give her my planned Christmas gift.

A few months earlier I had painted two pictures of my parents. I’d planned to give them as  ______gifts.

While painting one day， I was surprised by the doorbell ringing. I opened the ______. My father came. I showed  ______the paintings. Finally， with tears running down his face， he said， “I don’t believe it. Look， how beautiful your mother is. Will you let me decorate them with frames(相框)?”I______offered to send them to the frame shop the next day.

Several ______had passed after my dad died. It seemed all happiness was taken away from my mother and me. I finally remembered to call about the paintings and was glad that my father had got a chance to see the pictures before he died. I was surprised when the shopkeeper told me my father had visited the shop，______the frames and had them wrapped(包起来).

As I ______my mother’s sad eyes and unsmiling face， I ______to give her Daddy’s and my gift.

After looking at the paintings and the card， with tear-filled eyes and a wide smile， she said， “I knew Daddy would be______us on Christmas Day!”
