Reading: 10%Valentine ' s Day ( 情人节) was the time my father chose to show hislove for the special people in his life. Over the years I fondly thoughtof him as my “Valentine Man ”.At the age of six, on Valentine 's Day morning, I got a card signed“Love, Dad ” for thefirst time and a gift of a ring with a small piece of red glass. AsI grew older, the gifts gaveway to heart-shaped boxes filled with my favorite chocolates and always included a special cardsigned “Love, Dad ”. Year by year, the cards seemed less important, and I thought the valentine would always be there. I had placed my hopes and dreams in receiving cards and gifts from “important others ” , and “Love, Dad ” just didn 't seem quite enough.If my father knew then that he had been replaced, he never let it show. If the sensed any disappointment over valentines that didn 't arrive from me, he just tried that much harder to create a positive atmosphere （气氛）, giving me an extra hug （拥抱） and doing what he could tomake my day a little brighter.On Valentine 's Day eight years ago I received a card addressed to me in my mother 'shandwriting（笔迹）. On the inside, my mother had printe d “Happy Valentine 's Day ” and my father2had signed “Love, Dad ”. It was the kind of card that put tears in my eyes because I knew this would be the last I would receive from him.His final card remains on my desk today. It 's a reminder of how special fathers can be and how important it has been to me over the years to know that I had a father who continued a tradition（传统） of love with simple acts of understanding and had the ability to express happiness to the people in his life.1.
