Dear Died，

Today I was at the shopping centre and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards．But as I chose add read，and chose add read again，it seemed that not a single card said what I really wanted to you．

You'll soon be 84 years old，Dad，and you and I will have had 56 Father's Days together．I didn't think that you were too old．But the sad thing happened last week．I watched as you turned at the corner in your car．I didn't realize at once that it was you because the man who was driving looked so elderly．

Fifty years ago this spring，we planted carrots together in a garden in Charles City，Iowa．This week，we'll plant carrots together again，perhaps for the last time but I hope not．I don't understand why planting carrots with you is so important to me．Well，I don't quite know how to tell you this，dad …I don't like carrots…but I like planting them with you．

I guess what am trying to say，Dad，is what every son and daughter wants to say to their dad today．Praising a father on Father's Day is about more than a dad who brings home，money or shares a dinner．It's more about a dad deeply loving children who know everything and won't listen to anyone．It's about sharing．It's about loving someone more than words can say，and I wish that it would never end．

Lover，

Jenny．
