完形填空

From the time each of my children started school, I packed their lunches．And in each lunch I 1, I included a note, which might be a thank you for a special moment, or a bit of 2 for an upcoming test or sporting event．

In early grade school they 3 their notes-they commented on them after school, and when I went back to teaching, they 4 put notes in my lunches．But as kids grow older they become 5, and by the time he 6 high school, my older son, Marc, informed me he 7 needed my daily notes．Informing him that they had been 8 as much for me as for him, and that he no longer needed to read them but I still needed to write them, I continued the 9 until the day he graduated．

Marc had lived 10 from home and spent those years well, one day he called and asked if he could move home for a couple of months．With his younger sister 11 college, I was especially 12 to have Marc coming home．

A couple weeks after Marc arrived home to rest, he was back at work．13 I was still making lunch every day for his younger brother, I packed one for Marc, too．Imagine my 14 when I got a call from my 24-year-old son, 15 about his lunch．

“Did I do 16 wrong?Don't you love me any more, Mom?”were just a few of the questions he 17 at me as I laughingly asked him what was wrong．

“My note, Mom,”he answered．“Where's my note?”

This year my youngest son will be a senior in high school．He, too, has now 18 that he is too old for notes．But like his older brother and sister before him, he will 19 those notes till the day he 20 and in whatever lunches I pack for him afterwards．
