The ritual began after breakfast when Dad always announced: "Go ahead everyone. I'll take care of
the dishes!" With that my mother disappeared into the folds of the Sunday paper. Off came the suit
coat he had worn to church that morning. Up went the shirtsleeves. On went that apron. For the next
hour Dad did the dishes, singing ballads like "I Had a Hat When I Came In" and "Who Put the Chow
in Mrs. Murphy's Chowder?"
      I suppose it was strange for a boy's father to wear an apron - even one with race cars - but I neve
r thought much of it until the day that Dad broke with tradition. It was the last Sunday in August. My
father seemed in an expansive mood as we walked home from church together.
      "Tommy," he said letting my name roll off his tongue. My mind raced ahead of his words: The birds
and the bees? A new bike? A part-time job?
      "There comes a time in every boy's life when he must take on responsibilities." This was important.
I might even get to back the car out of the driveway.
      "Responsibilities?" I asked.
      "Yes. It's time you took a greater role in the household." Power tools? Boss my baby brother?
      "Starting today, I want you to do the dishes on Sunday morning so your mother and I can work
the crossword puzzle together."
       "The dishes!?"
       "Anything wrong with taking over the dishes, son?"
      I started to say something about a man's job or woman's work, but I knew immediately that my
protests would fall on deaf ears.
      I didn't taste a bit of breakfast that morning. Dad seemed in a cheerful mood and was describing
a wonderful baseball game he saw last night.
      Suddenly, everything grew quiet. My sister began to clear the table. My brother was finishing the
last of the egg from his plate. And then that ancient family ritual (程序、儀式) that had filled so many
Sunday mornings came to an end. My father announced: "Let's go read the paper, Hon."
      "Aren't you doing the dishes?" my mother asked in puzzlement.
      "Your oldest son has generously offered to fill the position."
      My brother and sister stopped cold. So this was what my life had come to. A dark angel sat on
my left shoulder and reminded me that I could hit a baseball farther than anyone in my class. I could
bench-press my weight. Ask me to run through a rainstorm. Command me to ride the roller coaster 
backward. These things I would do. But I could never do those dishes. There was nothing left but to
refuse.
      People often say there is a special chemistry between a father and a son. He came back into the
kitchen just as I was about to storm out. He had loosened his tie and rolled up the sleeves of his
shirt- ready to relax. In his right hand was the old apron.
      "I want you to have this, Tommy. It'll keep your clothes from getting wet." And before I could
mount a protest, he had put the thing on me. "Thanks, Son. Your mother and I appreciate this."
      With that he disappeared into the Sunday paper. I looked down at the plastic. It had seen better
days. I could see my dad reaching for the dishes. The dark angel flew off. Soon I was singing about
Mrs. Murphy's chowder. The words came out of nowhere. And out of nowhere I knew the kind of
man I wanted to be.

     I was parked in front of the mall wiping off my car.I had just come from the car wash and was

feel generous but there are other times that you just don't want to be bothered.This was one of thos
e "don't want to be bothered times".

like he could have enough money to even ride the bus.After a few minutes he spoke.

than his face warm.
     I said, "thanks," and continued wiping off my car.He sat there quietly as I worked.The expected
plea(乞求) for money never came.As the silence between us widened, something inside said, "ask him
if he needs any help." I was sure that he would say "yes" but I held true to the inner voice.
     "Do you need any help?" I asked.
      He answered in three simple words that I shall never forget.We often look for wisdom in great
men and women.We expect it from those of higher learning and achievements.I expected nothing
but an outstretched dirty hand.He spoke the three words that shook me.
