A co-worker told me one day his wife was out of town and he was responsible for doing their 8-year-old daughter's hair and he didn't do so well.

"Does she look awful?" I asked him.

"Her hair's a mess, but she's so beautiful, it doesn't matter."

We hear so much negativity about black fathers, so I love these stories, which represent the majority of our black daddies (including mine, who never could manage my hair).
