17、Saturday，March 20，2010 Dear Mom and Dad，

The time has come：I'm graduating，and I thank you both for all your help during these 15 years．I still remember when you used to say，" You can be whatever you want．"I'm so glad you are my parents，especially when I hear kids say they don't get on well with theirs．I'm glad that you support（支持） me when I decide to do anything．You always try to help，and that's important to me．

Dad，I remember when you first took me fishing．I loved going even though I never caught anything．I also remember when you would get angry with me．I realize you were only trying to show me the right way．When I would cry，you would always be there to try to cheer me up．That's what I call a good，loving，caring dad．Sometimes you and Morn don't agree with me，but you are there by my side in anything that I do，and that's why I love you both so much．

Mom，I enjoy going out with you and having our happy time every Friday night，and I hope that never changes．I love telling you everything; the best part about you is that you listen．I'm glad we do a lot together．You love to have fun，and Dad does，too You always give me your opinion and I listen．

Thank you for bringing me up．

Love always，

Allison
