Single Mom Disguises Herself as a ‘Dad’ So Son Won’t Feel Left Out

This single mom wasn’t afraid to butch up if it meant her sweet child wouldn’t feel left out on Donuts for Dads Day.

Yvette Vasquez was dropping her son Elijah off at Sue Crouch Intermediate School in Fort Worth, Texas when she noticed that there were more cars in the parking lot than usual.

When she asked why, Elijah explained it was because there was a special parenting event – but it was for dads only.

Noticing the sad look on the boy’s face, Yvette insisted they drive the 7 minutes back to their home so she could be his father for the day.

One plaid shirt, fake mustache, and spritz of cologne later, ‘Mr. Vasquez’ was escorting her son into the school weather they liked it or not.
