It was Father's Day, but Melinda wasn't happy. She was 500 kilometers away from her parents, and she couldn't spend the special day with her parents. In the morning, she called her father and wished him a happy Father's Day.
Later that day, Melinda and her husband(丈夫)took their children, Ted, Cindy and Mike, to the old people's home. They brought lots of beautiful -flowers, food and drinks to the old people there. Melinda cooked delicious food for the old people. Her husband and Ted had nice talks with some old people. Cindy and Mike sang and danced for the old people. And the old people told them funny stories. Then they had a great dinner and all of them were happy. When the old people got the flowers, they thanked Melinda and her family.
On their way home, Melinda's children asked her, "Why did we go to the old people's home today? "Melinda said," Its Father's Day, and some old people there don't have children. I have all of you, and I still have my parents. What we did today means a lot to them.
