Dear Lan,

1 I think if we have the celebration we can have a special day to express our feelings, memories and love to our parents.

2 I think the first Sunday of April is suitable because Sunday is a day off so everyone is free from work or study And the weather is always fine in April.

3 In my opinion, it is necessary to have a day to celebrate for our parents

4 It’s not necessary to have a big party on the day but we can have lunch or dinner with all members of the family

5 I’m sure my idea will be supported and the day will be celebrated nationwide.

6 0n this occasion, you should give your parents some gifts and serve them the food they like best

7 Please let me know your idea.

8 It is because every body loves their parents and want them to be happy

With love,

Mai
