I wrote a note to my parents when I was a young boy. I didn’t write anything to them before. That night, I just had a strong desire (渴望) to let Mom and Dad know how much I loved them, how much they meant to me, and how thankful I was for what they gave me. Because I was too shy to tell them my feelings face to face, I wrote the note and put it on the desk in their bedroom. I imagined how they would feel after they read the note thousands of times before going to bed.
Early the next morning, I heard a soft knock at my door. As soon as I opened the door, I found my mom and dad standing outside. They kissed me and thanked me for the note. Mom said that she was thinking I was a little child, but to her surprise, I grew into a young boy unconsciously (不知不觉地). Dad said he was happy that I could share my true feelings with them.
Seeing the smiles on their faces made me laugh happily. At the same time, I was surprised that my simple words could touch them so much. On that day, I saw my dad cry for the first time. The beautiful memory (记忆) stayed in my heart from then on.

Dear Diary, June 7, 2021I was very sad to hear what happened to Woollie yesterday. Woollie was my favorite sheep. I have a storybook about Woollie. It says when Woollie was four, he ran away from Mr. Armstrong’s farm, and it took Mr. Armstrong six years to find Woollie. But Woollie had grown so much fleece (羊毛) that he didn’t even look like a sheep. Mr. Armstrong decided to cut his fleece on TV, so everyone could see it. Daddy said this happened on the day when I was born. Woollie’s fleece weighed 27 kg and could make clothes for 20 large men. I asked Daddy if his favorite vest (背心) was made from Woollie’s fleece. Daddy said no, because Woollie’s fleece was sold to collect money for sick kids. In the storybook, Woollie was taken to see Ms. Stella Clark, the leader of our city then. They even had tea together. Daddy said Woollie was put down because he was too sick and there was no way to help him. I cried. I hope Woollie will be happy up there in heaven.

I Want to Say I Love You
I am a shy girl so that I never show my love to my parents. Today I want to say “I love you” to them.
My parents are tired because of their work, but at the same time, they have to look after and worry about me. They must get up early to make breakfast for me and be busy making lunch for me because our lunch time is short. They worry about my study, my health, my friendship and all my things. My parents are also understanding. Last term, I got a bad grade in math. I was afraid of telling them the truth. But in fact after they knew about that, they weren’t angry with me instead of encouraging me and helping me find the reason for that.
I really thank my parents so that I want to say “I love you” to them.
