"That big red dress is gone," she said in disbelief. "It's actually gone.”
"Well...I'll be!" Dad chuckled. "By golly, it is!"
"Who'd be fool enough to buy such a frivolous dress?" Mother questioned, shaking her head. 1.I quickly stole a glance at Dad. His blue eyes were twinkling as he nudged me with his elbow. Mother craned her neck for another glimpse out the rear window as we rode on up the street. "It's gone..." she whispered. I was almost certain that I detected a trace of yearning in her voice.
I'll never forget that Christmas morning. I watched as Mother peeled the tissue paper off a large box that read, "Eaton's Finest Enamel Dishpan" on its lid.
"Oh Frank," she praised, "just what I wanted!" Dad was sitting in his rocker, a huge grin on his face.
"Only a fool wouldn't give a priceless wife like mine exactly what she wants for Christmas," he laughed. "Go ahead, open it up and make sure there are no chips." 2.Dad winked at me, confirming his secret, and my heart filled with more love for my father than I thought it could hold!
Mother opened the box to find a big white enamel dishpan - overflowing with crimson satin that spilled out across her lap. With trembling hands she touched the elegant material of Big Red.
3."Oh my goodness!" she managed to utter, her eyes filled with tears. "Oh Frank..."Her face was as bright as the star that twinkled on our tree in the corner of the small room. "You shouldn't have..." came her faint attempt at scolding.
"Oh now, never mind that!" Dad said. "Let's see if it fits," he laughed, helping her slip the marvelous dress over her shoulders. As the shimmering red satin fell around her, it gracefully hid the patched and faded floral housedress underneath.
I watched, my mouth agape, captivated by a radiance in my parents I had never noticed before. As they waltzed around the room, Big Red swirled its magic deep into my heart.
"You look beautiful," my dad whispered to my mom - and she surely did!

我快速地偷瞥了一下爸爸。他用肘轻推了一下我，他的蓝眼睛在闪烁。我们经过那条街时，母亲通过后窗户伸长了脖子想再看看，“没有了”，她低声说。我感觉到她声音中一丝哽咽。
2.Dad winked at me, confirming his secret, and my heart filled with more love for my father than I thought it could hold!
爸爸给我使眼色，确认一下他的秘密还在，我心中充满了比我想象的对父亲还要多的爱。

“啊，上帝啊！”，她想说话，但她热泪盈眶，“啊，弗兰克……”，在这个小屋的一角，她的脸像树上闪烁的星星一样明亮。“你真不应该……”，她轻声的想责怪。作者: 木棉花开了 时间: 2010-8-30 09:46

我偷偷的快速瞥了一眼父亲，当他用胳膊肘捅了一下我时，他晶蓝的眸子闪烁着光芒。当我们从那条街经过时，母亲伸长了脖子望去，“它不见了。。。”她低声嘀咕道。我几乎可以从她的声音中追寻到某些向往的情愫的踪迹。
2.Dad winked at me, confirming his secret, and my heart filled with more love for my father than I thought it could hold!
父亲向我眨眨眼，以确认他的秘密还在，我的心中溢满了我对父亲的爱，这比我想象的还多！

“哦，我的老天。。。”她想要出声，却热泪盈眶，“哦，弗兰克。。。”她的脸就像屋角里那棵树上的闪烁的星星一样明亮。“你不应该。。。”她无力地想要责怪。作者: greysky_mm 时间: 2010-8-30 21:36
