My husband kissed the baby's cheek, said goodbye to me and then rushed out of the door, into his busy day. With the cold of the morning fading, I fed my baby and it fell fast asleep. Usually I would place it in bed and quickly have the house somewhat in 　 　　　　　　　　　 .

This morning, however, I stayed seated, just            , with the baby in my arms. The thoughts ran into memories of the 　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　 with my husband, a father rushing out of the door to meet the obligations ﹙责任﹚of life. It was only a small jump to thoughts of my own 　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　 .

My mother passed away when I was ten, and as I looked         , I could see how much of a family man my dad was. He went to work every morning and returned to his family every evening. He provided food, clothing, warmth, and 　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　 . He was a faithful father.

Setting the baby down, I dialed the 　　 number. I had just realized the         of the ordinary﹙普通的﹚daily life going on around us that we often took for granted(理所当然), and that it needed to be recognized（重新认识）.

“Hi, Dad.”I said,           back tears.

“Hey, Bud. How are you?”,         was in his voice.

“Fine, I'm just calling to say... thank you.”I got it out before my throat ﹙喉咙﹚             too much for me to speak.

"What for?"

“For getting up and going to work every morning of my life. Now that I have my own child　 and I see my husband doing the same, I just wanted to thank you for being 　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　 ”

There was          for a moment as my dad calmed himself down, and with a small tremble ﹙颤抖﹚in his voice he said, "You're welcome, Bud.”

I don't remember much of the rest of the call,          that moment of revelation(显露)about my father, I will never forget. Since then, I have realized that those　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　 everyday fathers are the true heroes in life. I'm thankful that my father was one of them.

It was 3:43. Thunder was crashing and the rain was pouring. Suddenly my father rushed into my room. “Adam! Adam! Get up! We’re flooding!” he shouted and shook me by the shoulders. That woke 　　 up! I ran downstairs to the basement. It was like a swimming pool. My mother and I immediately started to pick up things and take them upstairs. I had no 　 　 on, so my feet were quite freezing.

Things got worse every minute. Within the next hour, we had moved everything that we could to the first floor.

The warm day was the only day of the week without rain. I opened the door and went to the yard, took a seat and began to enjoy the wonderful sunshine. Suddenly, I noticed that the house near mine had been sold. An elderly lady was in front of the door, with some beautiful flowers beside her. I walked to her. She looked to be in her early eighties and had the prettiest white hair.

“Hi! My name is Robert,” I said smiling brightly at the old lady. She smiled back and said, “Hello, Robert. I’m Charlene.” Her voice was very strong for someone at her age. Later, I learned she was alone and had no family or relatives to look after her. From that day on, I often visited her and helped her with her housework and sometimes she gave me some delicious food. A year passed, and I considered Charlene to be one of my best friends.

One day, I walked over for my morning visit and knocked on the door, but there was no answer. I knocked again, and she still didn’t turn up. So I let myself in, using the key she had given me. I checked her living room and then her kitchen. I finally went into her bedroom, and she was lying peacefully on her bed. Beside her there were two notes. One was her will(遗嘱), which said all that she had would be given to me. The other was a thank-you note. I went to her bedside and cried sadly.

Although it has been a long time, I still miss her deeply. Whenever I look at the beautiful flowers in front of her house, I remember the wonderful friendship we had.
