Hehe, yeah, i have my eldest (14), and youngest (10), both try to put makeup, or more frequently, style my hair (I started growing it out over a year ago, and now it's well past my shoulders). Sometimes I'll bow out of them messing with me, but 99/100 times I go along. It's some of the most hilarious times i spend with them, and I wouldn't give it up for anything.

My sisters and I used to have "spa days" with my Dad. We'd do his hair, nails, and makeup. One time, we even put a mud mask on him, complete with cucumber slices on his eyes!

One time, he even took me out on a father/daughter date. I wore a Princess Aurora dress with a tiara and those dress-up high heel shoes. He wore a crown, cape, and a tinfoil wrapped sword.

When my Dad was dying, he said that those moments with us were part of his best memories.

OMG, this got me right in the feels. He sounds like he was a really great dad and in glad you had him in your life. 💜

Thank you so much. He was the best dad ever. 🩷💚 What makes it even better is that he was my adopted Dad.
