While the rest of the world is sleeping,my dad is dragging my warm covers off me so we won’t be late for my 6 a.m. ice hockey game.What started as a 31 is now my profession passion(a strong liking),and _32_of it would be possible without my dad.
“Let’s go,Brendan.You can do it!” _33_ like that does not go unnoticed.Every game,no matter what the _34_ is,my dad always says“ Good game.”and“ You looked great out there.”I'm _35_ ,knowing that even if I make a mistake or _36_ poorly,my dad will still be there for me. _37_ is one of the greatest things anyone can have.My dad is my support,without _38_ me to become something I’m not.It was my dream to play hockey,and he just _39_ me.
As I get older, _40_becomes fiercer.Each season brings a new schedule with more than thirty games,which my dad eagerly _41 .He gets as nervous as I do,but somehow _42_ in his seat and keeps _43 .He wants to yell(shout in excitement)and scream like most hockey parents, _44_ he is different. __45_each game,we sit down to eat and go over things to work_46_ in the future.Usually he only tells me how proud he is of me. _47_all those early- morning games and later-afternoon skates with Dad,I realize how lucky I am to _48_ him.It’s not easy getting up and driving to rinks(溜冰场)at all hours.My dad not only does that,but also helps me realize my dreams.I make sure that every game he attends,I play my _49 ,just to show him those 6 a.m._50_did me some good.
