Dear Daddy
A letter from Boogie to his dad (Written by Mommy)
Dear Daddy,Please listen to me when I tell you what I want to wear. Wearing the “right” clothes, while important to you, just isn’t that important to me, I’m 5. I do not feel that I need to wear a buttoned down shirt to a birthday party at the park . I know you think it will make me feel better about myself, but I feel pretty good about myself already and knowing I’m old enough to make my own decisions, makes me feel even more confident, I also like knowing that you and mom trust me.About the gel. Please stop “greasing” my hair back before school in the morning. I don’t like looking like a kid from the 50’s (I don’t know what the kids in the 50’s looked like but mommy says they looked like me after you do my hair). I like to just spray a little water and brush the hairs that are standing up, so they lay down.
Please know that I know it’s your job to teach me about these things, but sometimes it’s helpful for me to take your lessons and make my own decisions about them. I like wearing red socks no matter what I’m wearing, it makes me feel good.
p.s. Thaks for letting me where my Spiderman Costume out to breakfast the other morning, that was cool!
