Dear Santa, If I could make one wish this Christmas, it would be for a daddy with a big enough heart for two. We both want a daddy who can be loving, but also firm when he needs to be, who enjoys spanking his boys and making their a--es red, and with big enough arms to hold us both. We need a daddy who can help us let go and relax. Lastly, but probably most importantly, we need a Daddy who can meet both our needs. I don’t have many boundaries as long as I can trust my Daddy, and I’m open to trying new things.
