“Here’s another one for you,” said Mom as she handed me a package. I looked at it, ____145____. Having spent so much time examining the presents before Christmas, I ____146____ this one. It was for my mom!
It was a blow dryer. ____147____ this may seem only a simple gift, to me it was so much more. But, in my world, where receiving was more important than giving, my mom’s act of selflessness was difficult to ____148____. I thought in disbelief about how much my mom must love me to do that.
