My daddy was always working, sleeping, driving around. He left to Iraq, to save the country's broad sound. He fought and he fought. Untill one day, my daddy got shot because he went away. Tears came down my little chubby cheaks with a depressing frown. My daddy got shot so he couldn't save the country's broad sound. But one day we got a knock on our door.. oh yes, oh yes! My daddy standing proud and strong. In front of our door.

I wrote this when I was real little.. Im a teen now.
I wrote this article (nonfiction) because its about one of my hereo's, my daddy.
He has inspired me to grow up and be a mature adult.
It's now your turn daddy..


Thank you.. Lauren

This is a very inspiring article. She

has a very honest love and admiration for her father (the hero). I hope this

is printed in your magazine to inspire

other girls to love their dads the same

way she does.
