Happy Father’s Day to you! On this special day. I’d like to talk to you in     1     special way. I don’t think I’m good     2     talking with you face to face, so I write this letter to show my love to you.

You are not a rich man or a famous person. You are a common worker in a factory. But you are     3     (friend) to everyone you meet. I think you’re the     4     (great) father in the world. I am proud of you.

Do you remember that, dad? When I was in the     5     (six) grade, I fell ill. I felt so terrible     6     I couldn’t stand up. You     7     (send) me to the hospital at once.     8     (lucky), I got better the next day. You were so tired, but I could see the smile on     9     (you) face.

You often tell me to believe myself and keep trying. Sometimes we may have different     10     (idea). However, I’m really happy to have such a good father. I love you. dad. Wish you happy forever!

Yours,

Ben
