Reflection:

                 Mr. Piggott has two sons, Simon and Patrick. Every morning, they always said "Hurry up with the breakfast." to Mrs. Piggott. After they finished their breakfast, Mrs.Piggott washed all the dishes, made all the beds, vacuumed all the carpets and then went to work. Every evening, Mr. Piggott and his two sons always say " Hurry up with the meal" to Mrs. Piggott. As soon as they had eaten , Mrs. Piggott.washed the dishes, washed the clothes, did the iron and then cooked some more.  Mr. Piggott and his two sons Simon and Patrick are all sit and lied on the sofa watching TV. They were lazy like the pigs. One day, when Mr. Piggott and his  two sons got home from school and work, they found out that Mrs. Piggott disappeared. They only found one envelope on the mantelpiece. Inside was a piece of paper. It said " You are pigs". Mr. Piggott and his  two sons had to make their own meal and make their breakfast in the next morning. They were horrible. Mrs. Piggott still didn't come home so Mr. Piggott and his  two sons had try to take care of themselves. They never washed the dishes and washed their clothes. Soon the house was like a pigsty. One night, there was nothing in the house for them to cook. Mr. Piggott and his  two sons started finding some scrapes on the floor to eat. Then, Mrs. Piggott  came back. Mr. Piggott and his  two sons were grateful when Mrs. Piggott came home. So, Mr. Piggott and his  two sons washed the dishes, made the beds and did the ironing. They helped Mrs. Piggott to cook. Eventually, Mrs. Piggott felt very happy so she fixed the car. After reading this book, I feel very ironic because Mrs. Piggott does many things for Mr. Piggott and his  two sons, they just think those are the things that Mrs. Piggott should does without the appreciated hearts. When, Mrs. Piggott didn't come back, they understand the importance of Mrs. Piggott. I think that the moral of this story is that mom is very hardy and we should keep a appreciated heart to her.
