SOMEONE TO ADMIRE EACH DAY
ReplyDeleteA person who really I admire is my father, Joaquín. He’s a veterinarian, and he puts all of his heart on his profession. He looks like me, he has brown eyes and black hair, but He is smaller than me.
He’s been a veterinarian since before I came to this world, approximately twenty years; he has attended many different cases of different animals and has saved lots of lives, like a hero, right? Now, I work with him when I have free time, and I have seen that He’s very well-known by his way to work, because he’s more practical than theorical and he makes everything as possible when he has a critical case. Also, he hates that people give a bad care to the animals, he makes that people recognize their mistakes and try to make a better job with their animals.
My father sometimes hasn’t free time, because an animal can be ill in a few minutes, and he has to go instantly, even if it’s raining or is at night, but he is always with us, his family, he’s really funny and he isn’t complicated, he appreciate the little things of the life, but always want to be better.
He is of that kind of people who always find the answer to anything, like a typical Colombian person, or make everything searching it, I think that He always will make all as possible to make us happy, and it can be that we don´t live with all of that society think that makes a family happy, but we have to him and it is more than all of we can ask.

Hi, everybody.
ReplyDeleteIm going to write about My mother
When ask me about who do you admire? Only I can think in one person, my mom. For me is the most importan person in my life. I havent got a father, I never have know to him but I think that in this moment this situation, its not important for me, I have lived quietly for many time and simply I dont worry for that.
Then, why my mom is the person most important for me? Because, she is a wonderful woman, she always has been pentient of me and my siblings since only, we were children. Always she has been worry, she has been careful for us, all days, all time without to ask something. As a mother as amazing that care her children. But my mom is special, I think that she is unique, so she is a hard-working and only give us. Sometimes, we said her that she should give something to her.
Also, I admire to my mom because, she always working in her job and also in the house, for example, doing clean here, overthere; cooking us, in fact she cooks very well and very delicious. When she cooks us, we often ask her more because the meal that she cooked, we love it. So, its a way of say her thanks, althougth I think that anything is sufficient to thank all things that she is doing for me and my family.
For all things and other things that I cant say because this things are things that only I understand, because are little details that Only I can feel and estimate. So, my mother is the most important person in my life.
Thanks.
