A letter to my mother

Dear Mom:

Hello! I think I have grown up, so I would like to make a small request to you.

A few days ago, some students in our class were very excited. That was because they all went to South Korea during the winter vacation, which I have always dreamed of going. This was an activity organized by our school last semester. Although I have been to many countries before, this is my first time traveling abroad alone with my school friends, so I am particularly looking forward to it and will tell you the news as soon as I get home.

"Okay! It's just right. This can also exercise your independence. Let's sign up the day after tomorrow!" I remember that's what you told me at the time. You don't know, at that time my heart was as sweet as honey, and I couldn't wait to "tell the world" this news. But the next morning, as soon as I finished breakfast, you said to me: "Yanyu, you'd better not go to South Korea. Yesterday I asked Liang Xinyu's mother, and she told me that Liang Xinyu didn't go either, because it was too crowded. It’s cold, it’s more than 20 degrees below zero!” I said, “But mom, didn’t you say this can train me?” “Oh, Xiaoliang is not going, what else are you going to do?” We agreed to go back to my hometown!" This bad news hit my heart like a bolt from the blue, and my happy mood seemed to have fallen into an abyss and disappeared without a trace.

Finally, I want to say to you, please don’t listen to others on everything, don’t be so without your own opinions, let alone break your promises, you must know that “words must be followed, and actions must be resolute.” "ah! Mom, please don't do this again, okay? I believe you!

I wish you

happiness every day!

Your precious daughter: Hu Yanyu
