A Challenge For You: Write Something Good About Your Father

Tweet

I could write a book about my father AND my mother too. I had wonderful parents and a wonderful childhood. Even though we were not wealthy, we had what we needed and there were always FUN things to do and a lot of LOVE shown. My father was the youngest of TEN children, and his mother and father must have been wonderful people, because my father was kind and loving and he often helped those who were in need. His mother and father both died when I was very young, so I have no memory of them, but my father told me stories about growing up on a farm and milking the cows, gathering eggs and working in the garden. My father had a “green thumb.” That means he could grow vegetables on just a small plot of a garden. We always had a garden in our back yard. My father had VERY blue eyes. I wish you could see the color of his eyes in this photo. Tell me something about your father.
