A little boy came up
			to his mother in the kitchen one evening while she was fixing
			supper, and handed
			her a piece of paper that he had been writing on. After his Mom
			dried her hands on an apron, she read it, and this is what it said:
		
			For cutting the grass :  $5.00
			For cleaning up my room this week : $1.00 
			For going to the store for you : $.50 
			Baby-sitting my kid brother while you went shopping : $.25 
			Taking out the garbage :  $1.00 
			For getting a good report card : $5.00 
			For cleaning up and raking the yard : $2.00 
			Total owed :  $14.75
			Well, his mother looked at him standing there, and the boy could see
			the memories flashing through her mind. She picked up the pen,
			turned over the paper he'd written on, and this is what she wrote:
						For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside me :
No Charge
			For all the nights that I've sat up with you, doctored and prayed
			for you : No Charge
			For all the trying times, and all the tears that you've caused
			through the years : No Charge
			For all the nights that were filled with dread, and for the worries
			I knew were ahead : No Charge
			For the toys, food, clothes, and even wiping your nose : No Charge
			Son, when you add it up, the cost of my love is : No Charge
			When the boy finished reading what his mother had written, there
			were big tears in his eyes, and he looked straight at his mother and
			said, "Mom,
			I sure do love you." And then he took the pen and in great big
			letters he wrote: "PAID IN FULL".
			
			Lessons to be learnt:
								You will never how much your parents worth till you become a parent
				Be a giver not an asker, especially with your parents. there is a lot to give,
				besides money.
				IF your mom is alive and close  to you, give her a big kiss and ask her for forgiveness. If
			she is far away, call her. if she passed away, pray for her.
