                                  What I Want for You and Every Child in America
Dear Malia and Sasha,
     I know that you've both had a lot of   1   these last two years on the campaign trail, going to picnics
and parades and state fairs, eating all sorts of junk food your mother and I probably shouldn't have let
you have.But I also know that it hasn't always been easy for you and Mom, and that as excited as you
both are about that new puppy, it doesn't   2   for all the time we've been apart.I know   3   I've missed
these past two years, and today I want to tell you a little more about why I decided to take our family
on this journey.
     When I was a young man, I thought life was all about me-about how I'd  4   my way in the world,
become successful, and get the things I want.But then the two of you came into my  5   with all your
curiosity and mischief (捣乱) and those smiles that never  6   to fill my heart and light up my day.
     I want all our children to go to schools  7   of their potential-schools that challenge them, inspire them,
and instill (灌输) in them a sense of  8   about the world around them.I want them to have the chance to
go to college  9   their parents aren't rich.And I want them to get good jobs: jobs that pay well and give
them benefits like health care, jobs that let them spend time with their own 10   and retire with dignity.
     I want us to   11   the boundaries of discovery so that you'll live to see new technologies and
inventions that improve our lives and make our planet cleaner and safer.And I want us to push our own
human boundaries to reach 12   the divides of race and region, gender and religion that   13    us from
seeing the best in each other.
     That was the  14   your grandmother tried to teach me when I was your age, reading me the opening
lines of the Declaration of Independence and telling me about the men and women who marched for  15   
because they believed those words put to paper two centuries ago should mean 16 .
     She helped me understand that America is great not because it is perfect but because it can always be
made better and that the  17   work of perfecting our union falls to each of us.It's a charge we pass on to
our children, coming closer with each new generation to  18   we know America should be.
     These are the things I want for you, to 19  in a world with no limits on your dreams and no
achievements beyond your reach.And I want every child to have the same chances to learn and dream
and grow and thrive that you girls have.That's why I've taken our family on this great adventure.
     I am so proud of both of you.I love you  20   you can ever know.And I am grateful every day for your
patience, poise (自信), grace, and humor as we prepare to start our new life together in the White House.
     Love, Dad
