It was two days before Christmas, when my ten-year-old Almie Rose told her father and me that she wanted a new bike. Her bike was too 16 , and it needed repairing as well.
As Christmas 17 , her dream for a bike seemed to disappear, we thought, for she didn’t say it again. We were busy 18 some beautiful story books, a doll house, a holiday dress and toys. Then to our surprise, on December 24, she said she really wanted a bike more than 19 .
Now we didn’t know 20 to do. It was just too late. We were busy with Christmas dinner and packing 21 presents, parents’ presents, a brother’s present and friends’ presents till midnight. So there was 22 time to take to buy the "right hike" for our little girl. Thinking we were parents who would make their child unhappy, we felt sorry and 23 .
Suddenly my husband had an idea. "What about making a little bike with clay (mi) and writing a note that she could trade in (交换) the model bike for a real one?" So he spent the next five hours carefully 24 with clay to make a small bike.
25 Christmas morning, we were so excited for Almie Rose to open the little box with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note. She opened and read the 26 loudly. She looked at me and said, "So, does this mean I can trade in this bike for a real 27 ?" Smiling, I said, "Yes!" Almie Rose had tears in her eyes when she replied, "I would 28 trade in this beautiful bike 29 Daddy made me. I 30 keep it than get a real bike. This is the best Christmas present I have ever got in my life!"
