How many of us can really ever thank our mothers what they do for us? I am now 40 years old，so it's been a lot of years that I've had my mom's loving  (guide）and direction behind me pushing me gently when I need it．
When I was ill，mom would take care of me   ．(condition） When I had a terrible dream， she would never yell me for stealing into her bed． I graduated from college，she took pride in me as I walked across that stage．When life would get me down，she would tell me that it's always dark   the dawn．She's always been my greatest support， (keep） me up when life tried to defeat me．She never told me that anything was impossible or that I set    goals too high．With a gentle guiding hand she got me back on the right track if I faltered (摇晃） ．
A simple thank you will never be enough for the kindness and love she    (show） to me over the years．My mom deserves more than flowers，candy or   gifts．There isn't a gift in the world that could ever express my thanks for   she has done for me over the years．
