　　It was an autumn morning shortly after my husband and I moved into our first house. Our children were upstairs unpacking，and I was looking out the window at my father moving around mysteriously on the front lawn. My parents lived nearby, and Dad had visited us several times already.“ What are you doing out there？” I called to him.

　　He looked up, smiling.“I'm making you a surprise. ”Knowing my father, I thought it could be just about anything.A self­employed jobber, he was always building things out of odds and ends.

　　When we were kids,

　　he always created something surprising for us.

　　Today, however, Dad would say no more, and caught ups in the busyness of our new life, I eventually forgot about his surprise.

　　Until one gloomy day the following March when I glanced out the window, I saw a dot of blue across the yard. I headed outside for a closer look. They were crocuses (番红花)，throughout the front lawn.

　　Lavender, blue, yellow，and my favorite pink—little faces moved up and down in the cold wind.

　　Dad! I smiled, remembering the things he had secretly planted last autumn. He knew how the darkness and dullness of winter always got me down.

　　What could have been more perfectly timely to my needs?

　　My father's crocuses bloomed each spring for the next four or five seasons, bringing the same assurance every time they arrived：Hard time was almost over. Hold on, keep going, and light is coming soon.
