When Ben Soward entered the school and walked to the principal’s office to pick up his daughter, he asked his daughter for her schoolbag. When Valerie looked at him quizzically, he quietly told her that he needed to hide something. What could this something be?
When she saw his pants, she understood what he meant and knew everything would be fine. She even walked out of school with her head held high.
Dad knew he had done more than just pick up his daughter from school that day: “She was totally exasperated. But, once she saw my pants, I got that look from her where I knew everything was fine. I speak. And we walked out of school as if nothing had happened.
Ben went further than most to ensure his daughter left school without shame or embarrassment, and for that, we salute Ben Soward.
