Many of the 40 are hollow and almost broken, leaving me to believe it has 41 _ many springs．A few winters ago one of the bigge
st branches crashed to the ground under the 42 of melting snow．It 43 my heart．I guess I wasn’t 44 much from the old thing this year．But it is magnificent!
Since we have been 45 so much rain lately the flowers have become heavier．The 46_ tall branches seem to be under a lot of pressure．I can relate to that．There are big gaps because the branches are 47 ．
48 , today I noticed the first bunch of flowers turning brown．It won’t be long 49 _ they are all gone．But here’s what I’ve learned from it．
Some people are like fragrant flowers．They come into our lives ever so 50 and leave behind a scent that stays in our being．They 51 your day by just having had contact with them even if for a moment．You cannot possibly 52 a day without thinking about them．Their beautiful 53 gently touches your heart each time you hear their name．In the coldest, darkest days of the winter of my life, the 54 of them will get me through it all and bring a smile to my face and I will have “spring forever in my 55 ．”

Last weekends, my kids along with few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car. My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of 31 other people’s cars as well. It was pretty 32 outside and I had no plans to 33 to be in the bright sun. She 34 wanted to give lemonade（柠檬汽水）to passersby for free.

I feel blessed by being 50 by such wonderful and loving souls.
