And by the time we realize this, its too late. So dont wait for Mothers Day or Fathers Day to say sweet things to your parents.“I miss you all the time.” Although you are busy, dont forget to call your parents and tell them how much you miss them when they are not around.“I thank you for all your efforts.” Maybe you havent thanked them in words, but you surely did it in your mind. Hug(拥抱) them and tell them how much you thank them for their efforts. You cant possibly give back everything theyve done for you, but this small act will make them feel special.“Im sorry.” You might have said things that hurt them deeply, but they still believe in you and continue to shower their love on you. You may want to go back in time and make everything right. But since that cant happen, all you can do is to say sorry from the bottom of your heart.“Thank you for making me what Im today.” You can never thank them enough for this. Theyve always been your strength to move forward in life. They have taught you all the small and big things about life. Let them know they are the real heroes in your life.“You are great role models.” Your parents have been great role models and you should always respect them. They always encourage you to work hard and become a successful man in life. Even though you may have lost in a race or failed an exam, they were and still are your number one fans. 阅读以上信息，用恰当的词完成下面表格，每空一词。Things you must say to your parents before its too lateIntroductionYou 81 . express your thanks for your parents efforts and love.You dont say sweet things to them until some special days.What to say“I miss you all the time.” 82 . to phone your parents though you have no time.“I thank you for all your efforts.”Show your thanks for their efforts to give you the best life possible.A small act like a hug will mean everything to them.“Im sorry.”Your parents will always love you 83 . you may hurt them before.
