I`m Mary. I liked doing chores when I was young. My mother started teaching us to cook when we were five or six because my father was at home for only two days a month, so my mother had to do everything. She had to grow rice, feed the dog and the children and cook for us. When we were five or six years old, we all began to help mum do the housework. My eldest sister Lora helped our mother reap the crops on the farm, my second eldest sister Daisy did the washing, and I cooked for the family. When my sister finished their work, they both came to help me. I can still remember the tears in my mother`s eyes when she saw the first dishes we cooked. When I was seven, I went to school. But I decided to come home every day and cook for the family because I know it`s my duty to share the housework with my mother.
