As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six falling grades for the year. In this way he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and asked God for help. “Please God, I cant do anything more for my son. Im at the end of my rope. Im giving the whole thing up to you.”I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karls absences.” Before he could say another word, I choked up（哽咽）and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son, but I just dont know what to do. Ive tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. Its out of my hands. ” For a moment there was silence on the other and of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for your time”, and hung up.Karls next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he was even on the list of the best students at school. In his fourth year, I attended a parent teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were surprised at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?” I nodded. “That was me.

You may see her everywhere, on things like pens, notebooks and toys.Miffy first appeared as a cartoon character for a childrens book by Dutch artist Dick Bruna in 1955. However, on Feb. 16, 2017, Bruna left her forever. He died at the age of 89 in his hometown of Utrecht in the Netherlands (荷兰). The idea of Miffy was born when Bruna was having a holiday with his family in a seaside house. He saw a rabbit jumping around and it caught the attention of his baby son. So the artist made up a bedtime story about the rabbit for his son every night. Later he drew the stories into cartoon books.Since then Miffy has become a friend of kids around the world. But what makes Miffy so popular? Probably it is because of the way Bruna drew it. He only used a few strong lines and several bright colors in his drawings. Miffy only has two dots (圆点) as eyes and a cross as a mouth. Even when she cries she only has one tear, because one drop is enough to show Miffys sadness. Miffy is just like a little girl, simple, quiet and sometimes a little shy. But she is always open to new experiences.The best place for all Miffy lovers is the Miffy Museum. It is like a small world. There you can find Miffys house and her everyday experiences, such as going to the doctor and going to the zoo.
