How can I use mother in a sentence?
Ten years ago, there had been lots of pictures of what looked like a large pink beach ball wearing different-colored bonnets — but Dudley Dursley was no longer a baby, and now the photographs showed a large blond boy riding his first bicycle, on a carousel at the fair, playing a computer game with his father, being hugged and kissed by his mother.
Yes, boy, your parents were brave I killed your father first; and he put up a courageous fight but your mother needn't have died she was trying to protect you Now give me the Stone, unless you want her to have died in vain.
He would screamed, whacked his father with his Smelting stick, been sick on purpose, kicked his mother, and thrown his tortoise through the greenhouse roof, and he still did not have his room back.
In fact, he was not really crying — it had been years since he would really cried — but he knew that if he screwed up his face and wailed, his mother would give him anything he wanted.
Just then, the doorbell rang — Oh, good Lord, they are here! said Aunt Petunia frantically — and a moment later, Dudley's best friend, Piers Polkiss, walked in with his mother.
