My
Dad can take anything
and make it a joke. I had a Bat Mitzvah when I was 12 and I had
a bit of an accident and had to go home for a minute. He drove me
home and on the way I was crying. He made me laugh the entire way
home saying, "Hey, at least it was in front of people you know,
not in front of people you don’t". He used to let me
and my sister crack eggs on his head! He twists almost everything.
We say, "you," he’ll say, "I'm not a female
sheep!" – Gavriella, 13, North Carolina
My
dad can do a perfect impression
of anyone: me; Elmo (yes, from Sesame Street); Barney; any of my
teachers. It is always hilarious! He can always make me laugh when
I’m feeling horrible. He always has a hilarious come back
for everything. My dad is so much fun and would do anything for
me, my brother, my mom, or my bff (who he calls his adopted daughter).
I love you daddy! – Kiely, 13, California
My
dad was telling me
one of his old school stories starting with the usual,"Back
in my day...". I was bored when the story first started but
then it got interesting. You see, my dad moved to America from the
roughest part of Jamaica when he was about 11. So he decided to
tell me his story about his first school of day in America. He walked
in and sat down in his seat. He just listened to the teacher talk
for what seemed like forever because the lesson she was teaching
had already been taught in Jamaica. He was so bored and ready to
go when all of a sudden he let out a big, loud, uncontrollable FART!
The girls surrounding him screamed," EWW! A foreign fart!"
All he could say in his deep, deep Jamaican accent was," Sometimes
it just comes out." I was rolling on the ground laughing. Well,
that's my dad. – Wisangeles, 13, Florida
