One reason I appreciate my parents is because they let my siblings and I participate in many events of our choice, on their own time. For example, on Fridays, my siblings and I can choose to play chess at Friday Night Quads or go family swimming. They could have just spent the time at home, working on their own thing, but instead they played with us, spending time with their children. Also, on Sundays in the ski season, my Dad brings us to Stevens Pass for a whole day of fun and skiing. This takes away a lot of their own working time, but they still do it, which I appreciate a lot. Another event that my Dad holds is the Math Olympiad Club. A couple of friends and I get together with my dad, and we practice math concepts for an hour or two. This event bites another hunk out of their work schedule, and so I also really appreciate my parents for it.
