“Caught Being Good Dad”

Dear Mrs Baker

Hi my name is Joseph, I'm 12 years old and I am in Room 8.

I think my dad should get the “Caught Being Good Dad”  award  because he has been my mum and my dad  for many years.  My dad's name is Mike Peters and he is 45 years old.He is unemployed and he gets paid to look after my brother and I.He is a brilliant cook and we always have food on the table.He has looked after us when we were sick and helps us with everything we do.  

He is a slim, medium built man and is a loving father.He has black hair but has a lot of grey.He has brown eyes and has a dented nose because it has been broken before.My dad has a tough job because he has to do all of the jobs a mother does. He used to read us stories every night and put us to bed with one of his caring songs and we loved it.He devoted his life to us and  we are are so grateful for all he has done. He is a generous man and does all of the house work.
Dad  trained my rugby team when I was 7yrs old  and did a great job.He has given me life skills as I grew older like  treat women right and to look after my little brother.He was there on my first day of school and helped me to start a good year at school.We did training in the morning that my dad set up,we had all the fitness gear and it was fun.He wanted to be a better dad than his dad who had told him everything he touches turns to poo and he achieved his goal.He has worked tirelessly all my life to give me a better future and I am grateful for my dad.

Please consider him because he deserves it.He has been an  astonishing father all my life and I would like to give him something back.
