Life in Knots
by The Novelettes
I know I just said goodbye to you as you headed out the door, off to another one of your science classes I think, but I have always hated saying goodbye and prefer hellos instead.
So hello, I am your Dad. Remember me? You and I have been best friends for a long time, just you and me against the world and all that good stuff. I couldn’t ask for a better friend. Who else would have taught me how to play with Playdough and color in coloring books? Who else but you would indulge me whenever I get inspired by one of my kooky projects? We have always taken care of each other.
