Recitation:
My
little
boy
came
into
the
kitchen
this
evenin'
While
I
was
fixin'
supper
And
he
handed
me
a
piece
of
paper
he'd
been
writin'
on
And
after
wipin'
my
hands
on
my
apron
I
read
it
- and
this
is
what
it
said:
For
mowin'
the
yard
- five
dollars
And
for
makin'
my
own
bed
this
week
- one
dollar
And
for
goin'
to
the
store
- fifty
cents
An'
playin'
with
little
brother,
while
you
went
shoppin'
- twenty-five
Cents
Takin'
out
the
trash
- one
dollar
Gettin'
a
good
report
card
- five
dollars
And
for
rakin'
the
yard
- two
dollars
Total
owed
- fourteen
seventy-five.
Well,
I
looked
at
'im
standin'
there
expectantly
And
a
thousand
mem'ries
flashed
through
my
mind
So
I
picked
up
the
pen,
turnin'
the
paper
over,
This
is
what
I
wrote:
For
nine
months
I
carried
you
Growin'
inside
me
- NO
CHARGE
For
the
nights
I've
sat
up
with
you,
Doctored
you,
prayed
for
you
- NO
CHARGE
For
the
time
and
the
tears.
And
the
cost
through
the
years,
there's
NO
CHARGE
When
you
add
it
all
up.
The
full
cost
of
my
love
is
NO
CHARGE.
For
the
nights
filled
with
dread
And
the
worries
ahead
- NO
CHARGE
For
advice
and
the
knowledge
And
the
cost
of
your
college
- NO
CHARGE
For
the
toys,
food
and
clothes
and
for
wipin'
your
nose
There's
NO
CHARGE,
son
When
you
add
it
all
up,
The
full
cost
of
my
love,
is
- NO
CHARGE.
Recitation:
Well,
when
he
finished
readin'
He
had
great
big
old
tears
in
his
eyes
And
he
looked
up
at
me
and
he
said,
"Mama,
I
sure
do
love
you."
Then
he
took
the
pen,
And
in
great
big
letters
He
wrote:
"PAID
IN
FULL."
When
you
add
it
all
up
The
cost
of
real
love
is
- NO
CHARGE.
