Last year, Mothers Day spending on brunches, jewelry, salon appointments, flowers and greeting cards topped $20 billion, according to the National Retail Federation. And no doubt retailers hope to meet that amount this year too. Brands like American Greetings and Kay Jewelers, a Mothers Day advertising regular, portray the holiday, and therefore motherhood, as an event for young women doted on by attentive husbands and young children[took out the video ref since that wasnt an example of mothers being doted on]. But for many, both the holiday and the reality are as much about being a mother as they are about having, and caring for, their own mothers. And mothers taking care of mothers need more than mimosas and manicures to cope with life in the sandwich generation.
国家零售联合会的数据显示，去年母亲节，在美食、珠宝、聚会展会、鲜花和贺卡上的花费突破200亿美元。毫无疑问，零售商今年还想达到这个数。美国问候 与母亲节广告的常客凯伊珠宝等品牌使这一节日充满气氛。因此，母亲节是年轻妇女们受到细心的丈夫和小孩宠爱的一个节日(不要受视频影响，因为那不是一个母亲们受宠爱的例子)。然而对于很多人来说，无论在假日还是在现实中，她们既是母亲，也是女儿，也在照顾自己的母亲。而作为上有老下有小的一代人，母亲对母亲的照顾需要的不仅仅是鲜花与美甲。

As you grow older and your brain and hands cant work as fast as before. It will become other peoples wealth.
Then what is the most precious and everlasting thing in the world?

I once heard a moving story about a mother. Two children were drawn into the flood and the situation was very dangerous. Their mother jumped into the water without hesitation. But the mother couldnt swim at all. Jumping into the water means she might lose her life. But at that time she had no time to think about herself. She just wanted to try all means to save her children. Maybe her courage touched the God. The miracle happened. She finally succeeded in saving her both children. And she, course, felt extremely exhausted.
My friends, mothers love is the greatest love. Mothers love is the safest love. No matter you are happy or depressed ,rich or poor ,mothers love will always stay with you.

我曾经听说过一个感人的故事关于一个母亲。两个孩子被拖入洪水和情况是非常危险的。母亲毫不犹豫地跳进水里。但母亲不会游泳。跳进水里意味着她可能失去她的生活。但当时她没有时间考虑自己。她只是想尝试所有的方法来拯救她的孩子。也许她的勇气感动了上帝。奇迹发生了。她终于成功地拯救了她的两个孩子。她,当然,感到非常疲惫。
我的朋友,母亲的爱是最伟大的爱。母亲的爱是最安全的爱。不管你是快乐或沮丧,富有或贫穷,母亲的爱永远与你同在。
