Dear Clair,

I feel so surprised to see a huge and lovely cake you bought for my father to celebrate Father's Day.

That kind of feeling is complicated! How could you be  so considerate and sweet and think of presenting a cake for my father? My father said he felt touched and he thanked for your kindness and sweetness.

Actually, I did spend some time LISTENING to my father. I always play the role as a listener in front of him. He loves to tell me lots of stories, his personal precious experiences as well as his opinions toward current issues. All I have to do is smile, nod my head and listen with all ears. When people get older, their desires become fewer and fewer, simplier and simplier.All they need is some sincere greetings, some accompanies with smiles, some SHARING time and even some silent periods.

The main focus of my father right now is to prepare yummy food for his lazy daughter, Helen.

All I have to do is praise his cooking skills as well as delicious dishes he prepares with sweet smiles and good APPETITE. Haha, luckily, I am talented for that.

Thank you, Clair. Thanks for your thoughtful cake which brightens my father's smiles as well as mine.

Thank you, DAD. Thanks for everything you have done for me. Thanks for your considetation and thanks for preparing lots of yummy food to satisfy my stomach.

Happy Father's Day

Helen with a thankful smile
