22．（10分）Dear Dad，
Today I was at the shopping center and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards．But as I chose and read，and chose and read again，it seemed that not a single card said what I really wanted to you．
You'll soon be 84 years old，Dad，and you and I will have had 56 Father's Days together．I didn't think that you were too old．But the sad thing happened last week．I watched as you turned at the corner in your car．I didn't realize at once that it was you because the man who was driving looked so elderly．
Fifty years ago this spring，we planted carrots together in a garden in Charles City，Iowa．This week，perhaps for the last time but I hope not．I don't understand why planting carrots with you is so important to me．Well，I don't quite know how to tell you this，dad…I don't like carrots…but I like planting them with you．
I guess what I am trying to say，Dad，is what every son and daughter wants to say to their dad today．Praising a father on Father's Day is about more than a dad who brings home，and I wish that it would never end．
Lover，
Jenny
