II. Exemplary Essay: Reflecting on Cherished Memories with Mom

1. Recounting Memorable Moments with Mom, Example 1:

If someone were to ask me what I treasure most in life, it's undoubtedly having my mother by my side. She's not only the person I adore the most but also the one I will forever cherish and respect.

In life, a mother's care extends to every detail, from meals to sleep, studies, and emotional well-being. Nurturing, protecting, and safeguarding her children seem to be a mother's most instinctive traits. I'll never forget a trip to the market with my mom.

It was a beautiful Sunday morning when my mom took me on her old bicycle to the district market to buy groceries, vegetables, and a couple of chickens for our backyard. That market trip was delightful; my mom showed me around, we bought essentials together, and had breakfast at a bustling corner of the market.

On the way back home, it suddenly started pouring rain. Since we didn't have raincoats and there were no shops around to buy any, my mom used a plastic bag from our grocery basket to cover my head. Then she took off her sun-protective jacket and draped it over me to shield me from the raindrops. Pedaling through the rain to get me home safely, the raindrops drenched her beige jacket she was wearing. Seeing that image, I felt an overwhelming love for my mom.

Once home, my mom didn't even think about herself but quickly fetched a dry towel and clothes for me in fear of me catching a cold. Touched by her selflessness, I brought dry clothes for her and helped her store the groceries we just bought so she could change comfortably.

A mother always loves her children more than herself. I'm immensely grateful to have a mother; the thing I'm most proud of is being her child.

2. Recollecting a profound memory of my mother, model 2 (Standard)

I was born into the loving embrace of my parents and the care of my grandparents. I cherish all my family members, but the woman I love the most is my mother.

My mother is a homemaker like many others. Yet, in my perception, she's like a fairy from legends, the most wonderful woman in the world. My father serves in the border guard, often deployed far from home, so my mother takes care of everything in the household and raises both my older sister and me. She nurtures and educates us with her love, combining both strictness and gentleness. There's a memory of my mother that I'll always cherish.

It was a time when I fell ill, a prolonged fever kept me miserable throughout the night. My mother stayed awake all night, sitting by my bed, changing cold compresses, and checking my temperature. Knowing how tired and uncomfortable I was, she kept comforting me with words of encouragement. Her warm voice was soothing, easing the fatigue of my sick body.

When I woke up in the morning, I still found my mother by my bedside, tenderly asking how I felt. At that moment, I felt so warm and happy. I wanted to rush into her arms and cry, but seeing the dark circles under her eyes from lack of sleep made me feel so much love and compassion for her.

Having my mother is the greatest happiness in my life. Despite the difficulties and exhaustion, just having her by my side makes everything lighter and easier. I love my mother dearly, and I promise to study hard to become a good child, someone my mother can be proud of.

3. Describe and recount some memories of my mother, model 3 (Standard)

A mother is someone who always loves and protects us, even when we've grown up. Nevertheless, during that process of growing up, everyone has moments of making their mother sad, and I'm no exception.

I was born in a poor village. When I was in kindergarten, people still spent coins of one or two hundred dong. One hundred dong could buy two candies. When given one or two hundred dong, it was enough to make a child like me happy all day long. Because of the difficult life, toys were a dream for me.

Yet, right next to my house, my neighbor had a beautiful doll with shiny blonde hair, wearing a lovely princess dress and a jeweled crown. I stared at the doll longingly without blinking. Seeing this, my neighbor said, 'You really like it, don't you? You'll have to wait a long time before I let you borrow it.' I felt so sad and even more resentful towards her, feeling jealousy creeping in.

So, a few days later, when I passed by my neighbor's house and saw the doll placed on the bookshelf with no one around, I secretly went in and admired the doll. Unable to resist, I picked up the doll and examined it closely; it was so beautiful! I truly wished to have it. Suddenly recalling my neighbor's words from the day before, I decided to hide the doll. Thinking and doing, I brought the doll home and hid it under my pillow.

In the evening, getting ready for bed, my mother noticed the slightly bulging pillow and discovered the doll. She asked me, 'Where did you get this doll?' I was flustered and said I found it on the way home from school. My mother suddenly got angry, sternly saying, 'Why are you lying?' I squirmed but still insisted, 'I found it!' My mother grabbed my hand and gave me a few spanks on the buttocks.

I cried loudly because even though my mother was quite hot-tempered, this was the first time she had hit me. Her face was red, her voice filled with disappointment: 'Did I teach you to steal from others? This doll belongs to Trang, I've seen her show it to you.'

At that moment, I simply thought very simplistically and felt like my mother didn't love me. I snapped at my mother: 'Because you didn't buy me a doll, and all my friends have nice toys, so I took it from her. You don't love me at all!' I saw my mother cry then, her eyes red. In my naive thinking, I didn't understand why my mother was crying until I grew a little older.

My father worked far away, so only my mother, younger brother, and I were at home. Life was harder as my younger brother was often sick. My mother had to work and take care of both me and my one-year-old brother, so it was very tough for her. My mother looked thin and fragile, as if a gust of wind could blow her away. Perhaps my mother cried out of her own sense of helplessness.

Then my mother cried while telling me to stand facing the wall and reflect on my actions. At that moment, I felt resentment and frustration but didn't dare to argue with my mother. I was roused from my daze by the sound of my younger brother crying loudly. I saw my mother hastily placing something down and rushing to comfort him: 'Be good, go to sleep! Mom loves you, Mom loves you!' Suddenly, I felt jealous of both my brother and my mother, as it seemed like my mother only cared about him. The next morning, waking up, I saw my mother carrying my brother, holding a medicine glass. It turned out my brother had been sick all night. I was surprised to find myself in bed; perhaps I had fallen asleep standing for too long, and my mother had carried me to bed. But what surprised me more was a fabric doll placed beside the pillow. Not the extravagant colored dress, not the shiny blonde hair, but a pure white dress and black hair made of thread.

Upon closer inspection, I realized the doll was made from a white shirt my father had bought for my mother, which she only wore on special occasions. Seeing my astonishment, my mother said, 'Happy birthday, my daughter! Mom doesn't have enough money to buy you a beautiful doll now, but I promise to make it up to you another time!'

Now, I looked at my mother more carefully, her sunken eyes, tanned skin, trembling hands perhaps from carrying my brother all night and maybe also from sewing the doll all night. Seeing my astonishment, my mother said, 'But taking things from others is wrong; yesterday I punished you for that. You can only have toys when you deserve them. Take the doll over and apologize to your friend!' Seeing my mother's tired yet resolute expression, I realized she still loved me in her own way. I shuffled over to her and whispered, 'I'm sorry, Mom! I was wrong!' So, with wobbly legs, I took the doll back to my friend and apologized. Later, thanks to diligent study, my mother kept her promise to buy me a new doll, but it never was as good as the doll my mother handcrafted for me.

A memory tinged with a bit of shame for my mistake, but it helped me understand more about my mother's love for me.
