My Odd presents

I like to give a present to someone. I like to see the smile on someone’s face when I give a present. Especially, I like to give presents to my mother. I want to give her special one because she takes care of me so much, and I gave her many presents up to now. However, come to think of it, I gave her many odd presents.
The ragged apron is one of the odd presents. When I was 9 years old, I decided to give handmade apron to my mother as a birthday present. I bought some clothes and felts, but after that, I realized that I didn’t know how to use the sewing machine at all. It was a big trouble, and I decided to sew by hand. However, it is too difficult to sew all the parts of apron by hand. Although I finished it barely, the workmanship was terrible. It was just clothes and felts that were shaped into an apron. My mother was still pleased when she saw my apron shaped clothes although it came apart when she used it first.
The ladle was another odd present. When I was 11 years old, I decided to buy Christmas present for my family. However, I didn’t have enough money to buy them; my monthly allowance was just 600 yen. Therefore, I choose to buy the presents at 100 yen shop. It was very good idea because I would be able to buy all four presents for my family. I went to it, and bought four presents: CD cover for my father, mini planter for my grandmother, pen case for my sister, and ladle for my mother. I also bought wrapping paper, and wrapped those presents. However, the ladle was very difficult to wrap because of the shape. When I finished to wrap it, the shape was so strange. My mother was surprised when I gave it, and laughed when she opened it. Come to think of it, no body will buy one ladle for a present. It was the oddest present that I gave her.
Even now, I give her odd presents. Just recently, I gave her vitamins. I can’t help buying when I found what my mother seems to like although most of them were odd thing. I just want to make her happy. Maybe I will continue giving her a present even if it is considered odd thing.
