and poured the contents on my desk. I gently washed the mustard(芥末) off my girl's treasures and sprayed(喷洒) them with breath freshener to kill the smell of onions. And then put them into the bag again. The next evening，I returned it to Molly.

　　After dinner，I asked her to tell me about the stuffs in the sack. Happy and excited，she placed the objects in a row on the dining room table and explained them to me one by one. I found that each of the objects had a story，a memory or was attached to dreams and friends that meant a lot to Molly. Since I was Molly's beloved father，she was willing to share what she considered important with me.

　　Later，to my surprise，Molly gave the bag to me once again several days later. Same ratty bag. Same stuffs inside. I felt forgiven. And trusted. And loved. And a little more comfortable wearing the title of Father. Over several months，the bag went with me from time to time. And I have kept it with me until today.
