When the baby was asleep, he was photographed traveling to castles(城堡) in the clouds, cooking eggs in the kitchen or swinging on the swing with an elephant to catch him. The photos have attracted people around the world because of the cute creativity.

The boy soon felt silent as tears ran from his big blue eyes slowly. Feeling sorry, the father said, “You can finish later. Daddy is busy with business now. ” He hugged the boy hurriedly as well. The boy said nothing but quietly walked away. That evening the father said: “Michael, Come and finish your work now!” But the boy didn’t.
Unluckily, a few days later after the father’s birthday, the boy had a terrible accident and died. His sad father wrote, “If only I could tell him how sorry I am for my thoughtless words, and how much my heart is hurting.”

Who is the most important in our life?
Recently we have a discussion about who is the most important in our life. Jack thinks his grandfather is the most important in his life. His grandfather takes him to the park on weekends. He thinks it is good for the kid to be close to the nature. Playing chess is Jack’s favorite sport. His grandfather always plays chess with him. When Jack is not sure what to do next, his grandfather would tell him to do what he thinks is right. His grandfather teaches him to make decisions for himself. It helps Jack a lot in his life.
In my opinion, my father is the most important in my life. My father doesn’t tell me what I should do and what I shouldn’t do. He just does what he thinks he should do. From him, I know I should be on time. It’s better to get somewhere earlier and not to let others wait for you. Secondly, be kind to others, think for others and don’t bother others. What’s more, I’d better do things seriously and carefully. What my father does influences me a lot. I really thank him.
