It was a day that Bobby would never forget. Bobby, his brother and his mother were once again abandoned(抛弃) by his father. When times got hard, the man left home. Bobby wasnt surprised. He must take the responsibility for caring for his family. He put on the warmest clothes he had and pulled on his old socks and torn shoes. After thinking of a way to keep his feet dry, he went outside looking for work.Coming across some men working on the road, he joined in and worked hard for hours. Suddenly, rain poured down. “Go home and get out of this weather,” the men shouted, giving him a few coins.Bobby used the money to buy as much food as he could afford in the nearest store.

He bought Bobby a new pair of shoes.I wasnt there on that cold day. But Ive heard the story many times and can always imagine my father, as a child, dancing and wearing a pair of new shoes home.Several years later, Bobby joined the navy.
