My brother Ken was born with a brain disease. Though Mama was extremely 41 , she never babied Ken. She 42 him to do whatever we did.
I remember once we got a slide in our backyard. Ken was 43 at first sight. But unable to 44 the steps with the braces (支架) on his legs, Ken could only looking up at the rest of us from the 45 .
One day, Mama put Ken in the backyard, this time without his braces, and watched him 46 with great difficulty right over to the slide. For the next three hours, Ken climbed the ladder and fell, climbed the ladder and fell, 47 . He skinned his knees, and his head was 48 .
Our neighbor 49 at Mama, “What kind of woman are you? Look at the blood. Get that boy off that 50 !” Mama told her kindly that if it 51 her, she would have to close her curtains. Ken had 52 to go down the slide, and down the slide he would go. It took a couple of days of 53 before he could go up the ladder and down the slide as well as the rest of us, and another week before he could do it with his braces on.
Ken was not supposed to make it to his tenth birthday but he has 54 his disease and is now a 42-year-old man who lives 55 and even holds down a job. He 56 everything the way he did that slide so many years ago. What a(n) 57 Mama gave him that day by expecting him to be the 58 he could be.
Though I often feel I fall short when I compare my 59 to hers, it gives me great comfort to know that her spirit is 60 me, somewhere — preparing me to make “mothering magic” of my own.
