My Father's Day Letter!


Dear Mrs Baker,

I am writing to tell you why my step dad deserves to win the “Caught Being a Good Dad” prize!

Well there is a lot that I could say about my step-dad. He walked into my life when I was four years old when at that age my own dad walked out but I only saw him through school holidays. I was only young but I realised that he was a role model that I looked up to not only myself but also my siblings and older brother did as well! He is an amazing person who works hard and also provides for my needs and our family.

At times when I go out and come home late, he is always out in the streets looking for me and stopping in at friend’s houses to ask where I am or where they last saw me. When there are tough stages in life that most young teenagers face in reality he understands me and turns my frown upside down!

My step-dad would have to be the most perfect Islander chef in the world as he knows how to cook all kinds of meals that you would only see prepared over in the Islands. I find that when he is around the whole household is so full of happiness but when he is not, well everyone turns so quiet and looks so bored! When there is money that he worked hard for he always makes sure that most of his money is given to my siblings and I  to buy us things that we love to spend money on.

Life without my step-dad  I suppose I would be the type of young lady that does not know discipline, would only think negative and would not be strong at all at  defending myself.   He helps me with school work and supports me a lot even though he can’t really read a lot of English but it’s kind of funny listening to his pronunciation of some words.

When he was a young gentleman he said that the things he buys for me, he did not even get anything compared to the expensive things he used to buy for me. My step- dad is the type of person who likes to keep the peace between my whole entire family, but wow he is such a hilarious comedian that does quite a few weird acts at times. At dinner times when there is a big feed cooked, he makes sure that everyone gets a plate but I always see him taking the pots or dishes and eating everything with the pots left with nothing left  inside at all! He is an amazing step dad who makes me feel like I am waking up each morning in a dream and I love him so much!

Well to be honest my step dad deserves this prize because he is an amazing step dad and not only makes me happy but also everyone around.

Sincerely Yours
