Turpentine Hugs

 When my Daddy comes home from work he smells funny sometimes , all those chemicals where he works. I like to give him a hug when he comes home no matter what he smells like . Turpentine hugs are sometimes the sweetest ones , those are the ones when he is tired and a bit unhappy... It is not easy bringing the bread home for a family of six. He tells me not to hug him when he has so much chemical smells on him , but I know he likes it because when I listen to him and just say hi he gets rather glum. Yes, as strange as it sounds I have come to like the smell of turpentine.....It smells like hard work.
