My Dad
by Michael Barnes, Roosevelt Middle School
I am going to talk about something that me, my sister,
and my mom did for my dad. My dad had been in Law
School for three years now and finally he finished. My
mom wanted to put on a surprise party for my dad
featuring all of his closest friends and his parents. But
she wanted to keep it a secret from my dad. So we sent
letters to all of his friends asking if they would like to
come and celebrate my dad's graduation of Law School.
A couple of days later my family and friends walked
down to the restaurant to surprise my dad. When we got
inside, everbody yelled SURPRISE11 On a sidenote my
dad is very sensitive to getting embarrassed. So all of his
friends would talk about a time when they were with my
dad at a time when something embarassing happened and
then they would talk about how good of a friend he was.
