Fifty dozen was all we needed, which took twenty minutes. That morning, however, the process didn’t quickly. After forty minutes of aimlessly walking in the field, we needed twenty dozen. I was completely frustrated and .Dropping the basket heavily, I declared, “If the store wants its last twenty dozen, they can pick it themselves1”Dad .“Just think, my little girl, only ten dozen left for each of us and then we’re .” Such is Dad----whatever problem he ,he never gives up.
, the disastrous effects of the drought were felt all over our county. It was a challenging time for everyone, Dad remained optimistic. He to be grateful for other things like good health and food on our plate. Only then did I truly begin to Dad and his faith that guided us through the hard times.
Dad is also a living example of real .From dawn to dusk, he works countless hours to our family. He always puts our happiness his own, and never fails to cheer me on at my sports games his exhaustion（疲劳） after long days. His loving and selfless nature has inspired me to become more sympathetic and putting others first.
Dad，the life I have learned from you will stay with me forever. You are my father, teacher, friend and, most importantly, my hero.
