    I was sitting in the surgical(外科手术的) waiting area at the hospital waiting for word of my wife's operation. The small room was filled with other families and friends, who were __21__ waiting to hear how their loved ones were doing.

    There was a young boy sitting quietly in the ___22___ . He held a small box of ___23___ in one hand and a tablet(写字板) in the other. Every so often he'd place the tablet on his lap and draw something. As the hours passed I began to see the room almost ___24__ . And there was a strange silence.

    "Daddy, when is Mommy going home?" the young boy asked, breaking the ___25___. "Tomorrow." his father replied. The boy picked up his crayons and ___26___ something on the tablet.

    I ___27___ him as he moved his feet back and forth, looking up at the ceiling and then toward the sunshine-filled window. "When's ___28___, Daddy?" he asked. His father ___29___ him over to sit by him. "Come, ___30___ here next to me," he said with a gentle tone in his voice.

    ___31___ his things, the little boy walked slowly to his father's side from the man ___32___ out and held his son by his shoulder.

    "There are three days in life. Yesterday, today and tomorrow. One is over and done, one we live in, the other we ___33___ . We can't live in yesterday, but if we are happy enough today, we will be even happier tomorrow," he said in an attempt to ___34___ the boy.

    The little boy looked at him for a moment and said, "If Mommy is going home tomorrow, I'll be ___35___. So, I want it to be tomorrow already, Daddy."

    Now hanging on every word of this ___36___ , I leaned forward to hear his response. It was ___37___.

    "Son, the one great thing about today is once it ___38___, it is already almost tomorrow."

    I thought about how ___39___ it was. Even in my adult life, I still live waiting for what tomorrow may __40___. Now I know that it is already "almost tomorrow".
