我从来也没有给过儿子割草钱，虽然家里的割草机我都不会用，SNOW BLOWER我不会启动，内心我很感谢儿子。零用钱总是给，但没有和家务劳动结合。最近，我开始给他20元，说：这是你割草的钱，儿子会笑笑，欣然接受。
上周末梅森音像里放着这首很久以前的老歌《真爱无价》。我们坐在沙发上，会心微笑地听着，很感动。
我们给孩子的爱是无限的，无价的。。。 。。。
歌里讲一个小男孩，写了一个账单：
割草5元，整理床铺一周1元，照顾小弟弟0.25元，全A成绩单5元。。。
要妈妈付钱14.75给他。
妈妈接过那个账单在反面写道：
怀孕九月 0元；
生病时整夜照顾你 担心你 0元，
这些年的时间和眼泪 0 元
给你的智慧和建议 0 元
帮你攒大学费用 0 元
玩具，食物和衣服，帮你擦鼻涕 0 元
再加上，我给你全心全意的爱 0 元
孩子看完妈妈写的
眼里含泪：
妈妈，我真的好爱你
然后在自己的账单上写到：
帐目一清
。。。 。。。
/> Now our little boy came up to his mom
In the kitchen this evenin' while she was fixin' supper
And he handed her a piece of paper he'd been writin' on
And after wipin' her hands on her apron
She read it, and this is what it said.
For mowin' the lawn, five dollars
For makin' my own bed this week, one dollar
And for goin' to the store, fifty cents
An' playin' with little brother while you went shoppin', twenty-five cents.
Takin' out the trash, one dollar
Gettin' a good report card, five dollars
And for rakin' the yard, two dollars
Total owed, fourteen seventy-five.
Well, as mom looked at him standin' there expectantly
And I could see the mem'ries flashing through her mind
And so she picked up the pen, and turnin' the paper over
This is what she wrote.
For the nine months I carried you growin' inside me, no charge
For the nights I've sat up with you
Doctored you, and prayed for you, no charge
For the time and the tears
That you've cost through the years, there's no charge
And when you add it all up
The full cost of my love is no charge.
For the nights filled with dread
And all the worries ahead, no charge
For advice and the knowledge
And the cost of your college, no charge
For the toys, food and clothes and even for wipin' your nose
There's no charge, son
And when you add it all up
The full cost of my love is, no charge.
Well, when he finished readin'
He had great big old tears in his eyes
And he looked up at her standing there and said
Mama, I sure do love you
Then he took the pen,
And in great big letters
He wrote PAID IN FULL.
Lord knows when you add it all up
The cost of real love is, no charge...
