媽媽的生日快到了，Sandy和Joy姐弟倆打算給媽媽送一份特別的禮物。可是，他們絞盡腦汁想了半天，還是沒有想出一個好主意。后來，媽媽無意間的一句話給了姐弟倆提示，最后他們給媽媽送了什么禮物呢？Let's read the story.

It is the fifteenth of January.

It is mom ' s birthday tomorrow.

But Sandy and Joy have no presents for mom.

"What about a pair of shoes？" suggests Sandy.

"But mom has a lot of shoes，

says Joy.

"What about a card？"suggests Joy.

"But we sent a cardlast year， " says Sandy.

"What about a scarf？" suggests Sandy.

"But dad prepares it，" says Joy.

It ' s time for breakfast.

Sandy and Joy are not happy.

"What ' s wrong？" asks mom.

"Tomorrow ' s your birthday，" say Sandy and Joy.

"But we don ' t have a present for you."

"Take it easy，" says mom.

"You can give me a big hug."

After breakfast， Sandy and Joy help wash the dishes.

Mom looks out of the window.

"I wish the snow would hurry up and melt（融化），" she says.

"I miss our flowers."

That gives Sandy and Joy an idea.

They find some straws （吸管）.

They use crayons to draw some flowers.

Then， Sandy cuts the flowers out.

Joy glues each flower to a straw.

They are so happy！

The next morning， Sandy and Joy wake up early.

They plant the flowers just outside the kitchen window.

Then they run back inside to wake their mom.

"Happy birthday， mom！" they shout.

Mom goes into the kitchen， she sees the flowers.

Sandy and Joy say ， "They ' re snow flowers， Mom."

"What a great present！ I love them，

says mom0

"Thanks， dears."
