She may outgrow it, but she'll probably never forget it.
I'm a guy, but I recall as a kid feeling my dad's stubble when I gave him a hug as a child, when he came home from work, smelling of sweat and tar (he worked as a road maintenance worker - a very hard job, especially in the summertime in California).
He passed away 14 years ago, and I'm turning 46 in a couple days; how time passes...

- arkades 7y agoSame here. My strongest sense memories of my dad are the feel of his shirt against my cheek when I'd run up to hug him when he got home from work, the feel of the callouses on his fingers, and the stubble on his cheek under my hand. I remember those things more often than I do the sight of his face, or the sound of his voice, or the smell of his cologne. By far.
