My mother stopped her work and raised her head with in her eyes.She didn’t answer immediately.Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt.

“Dad,how are you feeling now?”I asked him one day.
“Susan,”he said gently,“To tell you the truth,I just like with your mom.I like this kind of life.” his eyes,I knew he loved my mother deeply.
