Tired and angry, Jewel said to herself, "Why do I have to do this silly work?" Jewel hit her bed with her hand. She took out a piece of paper and wrote on it: "Dear Mum. For all the chores I did: Picking up the rubbish — 1 Folding the clothes — 3 Sweeping the floor — 5..." Jewel gave it to her mother. Her mother turned over the paper and wrote: "For the nine months I carried you: No Charge. For all the nights that I sat up with you: No Charge. For all the years that I took care of you: No Charge...." When Jewel finished reading what her mother wrote, there were big tears in her eyes and she said, "Mum, I do love you."
