My daddy is the best daddy in the entire world. He loves me so much and he says that he's never going to let them take me away from him. I don't know who he's talking about when he says that. Maybe it's the men in suits with walkie-talkies, like in E.T.. I love my daddy so much that I decided to draw a picture of him and me. I colored the picture so that it looks really pretty, but you can't see the colors because this newspaper is in black and white because it's stupid. My daddy says that he is only going to draw pictures for them until he gets a real job. I hope he does, so we can eat something besides macaroni and cheese for dinner. I drew my daddy with an eyepatch on. That's because he had something wrong with his eye so he had a doctor do surgery on it. He got really grumpy when he had to wear the eyepatch, but I told him that he looked cute with it on and he looked like a pirate. I drew my mommy, too. I drew her kissing Uncle Jim. My mommy tells me to call him Uncle Jim, but he's not my uncle. An uncle is someone who is your mommy or daddy's brother, like my Uncle Theo. Uncle Jim is the man that my mommy lives with now. She used to live with my daddy and me, but I told my daddy that one time I saw Mommy kissing Uncle Jim. That made Mommy and Daddy get in a real big fight. The next day Mommy went to live with Uncle Jim. This made my daddy sad and he cried so hard that blood came out of his eyepatch and he had to go back to the doctor. I drew my daddy holding a bat he made. He made it by pounding some nails into the end of a normal bat. I asked him why he did that and he said that he wanted to go play baseball with Uncle Jim. I told him that was pretty dumb because then the baseball would stick to the bat if he hit it. I think he knew that it was stupid once he tried it because after he came back from playing baseball with Uncle Jim he told me not to tell anyone about it. After that we moved to Columbus. I was sad because I had to leave all my friends in Springfield, but my daddy said that we couldn't stay there anymore. He said that he would make it up to me by writing me a story about a girl named Princess who saves the world from dinosaurs. My daddy writes lots of stories. I don't like most of them because they are really boring, but I really liked the dinosaur story. He read it to me at bedtime and I liked it so much that I gave him a great big hug. He hugged me back and told me that he'd never let them take me away from him. I have the best daddy in the whole wide world.
