As a parent, you want to give your child everything and more. No task is too big, no cause is too insignificant, and no mountain is too high.
Why? Because you never want your children to experience loneliness, fear, or sadness.
When Ben Sowards, a father from Utah, USA, received a call from his 6-year-old daughter, he knew he had to go to her school immediately.
Valeria had a small accident and wet her pants. There was no risk, but Ben knew how embarrassed his young daughter would feel.
Before Ben left to pick up Valeria, he had an idea. He wanted to make his daughter laugh and ease her discomfort.
According to the Huffington Post, Ben spilled water over his own jeans before heading to the school.
When he arrived, he asked Valeria if he could use her school bag to “hide” something.
When Valeria saw the large wet stain on her father’s crotch, she realized what he had done.
As though nothing had occurred, things got better as soon as Valeria realized her dad was in the “same” situation.
“To be honest, I knew she was embarrassed, but I thought everything would be alright if I could make her laugh,” Ben said.
“She was quite upset. But as soon as she saw my jeans, she gave me that look that said everything was fine. Every dad knows this look. We simply walked out of the school as if nothing had happened.”
Ben only needed to pick up his daughter from school. But he went above and beyond because he didn’t want her to feel ashamed. What a wonderful father!
There are many amazing fathers in the world, but few have the creative imagination that Ben does.
Please feel free to share this story on Facebook to honor Ben Sowards for his amazing initiative.
