Single Mum Gives Son 'Awesome' Gift On School Dad Day

A single mum has gone viral after she went the extra mile to ensure her son felt included at school.

Yevette Vasquez was dropping off her son, Elijah, when she realised that it was much busier than usual. After asking Elijah what was going on, she realised that it was a 'Donuts with Dad' event.

Basically, the school provided donuts and the dads of the kids all got to know each other.

To ensure that Elijah didn't feel left out, Yevette got back into the car and went home to get a 'disguise'.

She wrote on Facebook: "Good morning, today at my son Elijah's school as I was dropping him off I ask him why there was so many cars... He said Donuts with Dad, so we quickly went back home cause I wasn't about to let him miss out..... I know seeing other dads with their kids isn't easy for mine but it's life, at least I can do whatever it takes to put a smile on that face, so here it goes..... and please don't hate I know I'm a woman an so do my sons lol #ilovehim#wegettingthemdonuts #noexcuses." [sic]

At the time of writing, the post has accumulated 17,000 likes and 6,000 shares.

Speaking to CNN, she said: "Most of the dads thought it was really cool.

"They thought it was really supportive and sweet. I did feel the energy of a few men who weren't as comfortable with it, though."

Fair play to her.
