Family Circle: Dad & Tot
I remember being a girl and having my dad occasionally brush my hair. It usually took place when mom was away for a few days. He was so gentle and tried so hard. I remember being perplexed at the “ponytails” that resulted. But gotta love the tenderness of a dad taking care of his 4 girls all by himself while mom is away. This is totally one of those moments. Even still, isn’t it a most intimate thing to have your hair combed with fingers or comb as an adult? Not everyone gets to get that close (nor would they want to), you know?
Sweet.
Have a sweet day,
Katie
This reminded me of the couple of times my dad took care of us kids while my mom was away. His big thing was grocery shopping – he’d come home from work and ask, “What do you want for dinner tonight?” and then go to the store to buy it. We thought it was awfully funny that he did this every single night, rather than shop for a few nights in a row!
