No Charge!!


A little boy came into the Kitchen one evening when his mom was fixing supper. He handed over a piece of paper he’d been writing on.After wiping her hands on the apron she  read it and it said:
For mowing the grass: Rs.250/-
For making my bed: Rs.250/-
For going to the store: Rs.250/-
For playing with baby brother while u were shopping: Rs.150/-
For cleaning the trash: Rs.50/-
For getting a good report card: Rs.150/-
She looked at him standing there expectantly and a thousand memories flashed through her mind. So she picked up the paper and turning it over  she wrote:
For nine months I carried u growing inside me: No charge
For the nights I sat up with u doctored u, prayed for u : No charge
For the times and the tears and the cost through the years: No charge
For nights filled with dread and worries ahead : No charge
For advice and knowledge and cost of school: No charge
For toys, clothes, food and wiping ur nose: No charge Son
When u add up all the full cost of my love is No charge
Well, when he finished reading this he had big bold tears in his eyes
And he looked upto her and he said: Mamma I sure do love u…
Then he took the pen and wrote in great big letters: PAID IN FULL
When you add it all up, the cost of real love is “No charge”
