今天,开完家长会,妈妈看起来闷闷不乐,我小心地问:「妈妈,您怎么了?」妈妈看着我,叹了口气说:「你暑假作业做得不好,字也写得不好。我想,可能是因为有了小妹妹,我这段时间对你的关心少了。」我听了,不好意思地低下了头。

看着妈妈自责的样子,我心里特别难过,我对妈妈说:「妈妈,您不要自责了,这根本就不是你的错,而是我自己不努力,请您不要生气了。从现在开始,我一定会认真完成老师交给的每个作业,得到好成绩。请您相信我!」妈妈盯着我的眼睛,攥着我的手说:「好孩子,妈妈相信你,让我们共同努力!」

English translation:

Today, after the parent-teacher meeting, my mother looked dull and unhappy. I asked carefully: “Mom, what happened to you?” Mom looked at me and sighed and said: “You didn’t do well in summer homework, and your writing is poor. I think, maybe because of the little sister, that I haven’t been paying as much attention to you during this time.” As I listened, I hung my head in embarrassment.

Looking at my mother’s self-blame, I was particularly sad. I said to my mother, “Mom, don’t blame yourself. It’s not your fault, it’s that I haven’t worked hard enough, so please don’t be angry. From now on, I will definitely complete every assignment given by the teacher seriously and get good grades. Please believe me!” Mom stared at my eyes and said with my hand: “Good child, I believe you, let us work hard together!”
