题目内容:
When my kids were small, I started a tradition in our house of giving eight gifts over the course of the eight days of Hanukkah (光明节). I liked the idea of ______ a candle every night and giving my children a gift to unwrap to ______. It was easy to go into a toy store and pick up something ______ less than $ 10 each, or even $ 1 each (at the Dollar Store). My children didn’t ask for anything much in particular and they ______ whatever they got.
As the years progressed, I ______ the tradition of eight ^fls for each night of Hanukkah.
But this year, Hanukkah ______ something else. My special-needs son decided that he wanted to ______ a computer, and it was up to me to buy all the parts of it. When I wouldn’t ______ that, he decided he wanted a PlayStation. Then Amazon gift cards. Then money. And it became clear that it wasn’t going to happen, he got ______.
I keep ______ him that Hanukkah isn’t about greed or materialism. It’s about the miracle of an oil lamp that ______ for eight days. It’s about being ______ of our heritage. It’s about freedom.
But he ______. I know deep down that his obsessions (迷恋) are out of his ______, and definitely out of mine. Having a special-needs child is as ______ as it gets. Some days are better than others and not all holidays ______ the way I hope. But despite his unrealistic requests, he’s a(n)______ child who is showing me the true meaning of life.
And as we enter a new year and light the ______ approaching the time, I welcome his differences ______ I learn how to turn negative requests into ______ ones.
