Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，選擇最佳答案。
For years I wanted a garden. I'd spend hours thinking of diferent things I could plant that would look nice together.
But then we had Mathew， and Marvin， and the twins -- Alisa and Alan， and then Helen. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.
Money was not enough. Neither was time. Often when my children were little， one of them would want something that cost too much， I'd have to say，"Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn't grow on trees， you know."
Finally， all the children got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about a garden.
Then， one spring morning， on Mother's Day， I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly， I looked out of the window and there was a new tree， planted right in my yard. There were things blowing around on it. Then I put my glasses on and I couldn't believe what I saw. There was a money tree in my yard!
I went out to look. It was true! There were dollar bills， one hundred of them， hanging all over that tree. There was also a note among them， "Thank you for your time， Mom. We love you!"
Later， my children bought me tools， ornaments（裝飾品）， a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books. A new page started in my life.
That was three years ago. My garden is now very pretty， just like I wanted. When I go out and take care of my flowers， I don't seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they're right there with me. Now every year when winter comes， I look out of my window and think of the flowers I'll see next spring in my little garden. I think about what my children did for me， and I get tears in my eyes -- every time.
I'm still not sure that money grows on trees. But I know love does!
