:感恩节故事

  "太谢谢你们了!"说着,我们拥抱了一下."请向教堂转达我们的爱和感激."接着我便驱车到离家不远的一个商店里去买孩子们急需的一些东西.

  At the check-out counter I had a little over $14.00 worth of groceries, and I handed the cashier one of the gift certificates. She took it, then turned her back for what seemed like a very long time. I thought something might be wrong. Finally I said, "This gift certificate is a real blessing. Our former church gave it to our family, knowing I'm a single patent trying to make ends meet."

  我买了14块多一点的东西,在收银台我把一张礼品券递给了收银员.她接了之后,便转过身了去好长一段时间.我想可能是什幺地方 出了差错.终于我忍不住說到:"这张礼券包含了真诚的祝福.是我们以前所在的教会送给我的,因为知道我是个量入为出的单身母亲."

  The cashier then turned around, with tears in her loving eyes, and replied, "Honey, that's wonderful! Do you have a turkey?"

  于是那个收银员转回了身,充满爱心的眼中盈着泪花:"亲爱的,好极了!你买了火鸡吗?"

  "No. It's okay because my children are sick anyway." "没有.不过没关系反正孩子们病着呢."

  She then asked, "Do you have anything else for Thanksgiving dinner?"

  她又接着问到,"你买了其它感恩节的食品吗?"
