My mother is a housewife, so she has more time than others who have jobs. She has various ways to enjoy her spare time. First, she likes to cook, and she is the best cook I know. She makes a nice dish every Sunday for our family. She goes to a cookingschool to learn how to make court food and bake bread. On the evenings when she goes to the school, we have a big dinner. We always expect it on those days. Second, she likes to decorate home. She enjoys doing a cross-stitch and a quilt. She has made curtains, our bedding, table covers, and dolls. They are quiet beautiful. She is house-proud, so she likes inviting her friends. She sometimes shows them how to do a cross-stitch or a quilt, and they do them together. Finally, she goes to a sports center. She enjoys swimming everyday. She wants all our family to work out everyday even by taking a walk. She always says health is the most important thing in our lives. But my father and my younger sister insist that a rest is the most important thing in their lives. I agree with my mom, so I go to a fitness center near my home. I want to swim with my mother, but it’s not easy to fit it into our time. Anyway, she is a wise woman who can spend her free time effectively and enjoy herself. I respect my mother and want to be a person who can enjoy my life like my mother.
