From Sophie to Dad: “I love you because you are you”

Sophie Johnson, aged 11, Cork

Dear Dad,

I just wanted to tell you some of the many things that I love about you. I love your simple English ways, such as the way you say "scon" instead of "scone", and when you say "Let the dog see the rabbit". I love the fact that you can always take a joke, and give it right back. I love the sound of you making coffee on a Saturday morning for you and Mum. I remember how excited we used to get when we were small, and you used to come home from work and yell "Hi everybody".
I love you because you are you.

Happy Father’s Day,

Love,
