Greyson has never been a big fan of dresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve been following Love Greyson, you probably already know that when it comes to clothes, Greyson has some very definite preferences. She likes her pants a certain way, she likes clothes that feel a certain way, and for the most part, dresses have not been on the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So imagine my surprise when she decided she wanted to wear one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And not just any dress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She wanted to wear a dress for Daddy-Daughter Night\u2014and she wanted to surprise her dad.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s the funny part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I actually bought this dress months ago for our Greece and Italy trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had a little plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had purchased a shirt dress from Quince that I really liked, and I thought maybe if I found Greyson something similar to mine, she might like it too. So I bought her a simple shirt dress that reminded me of mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was comfortable-looking, easy, and not overly “dressy.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thought it might be a good option for our trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But…we never got the opportunity to wear it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that was perfectly okay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wasn’t going to make her wear it just because I had bought it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dress went into her closet, waiting for another day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apparently, that day was Daddy-Daughter Night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I want to wear a dress.”<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When it was time for Greyson to get ready, I gave her options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She could wear the dress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or she could wear slacks and a turtleneck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I honestly expected her to choose the pants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After all, this was Greyson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But she had something else in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She decided on her own<\/strong> that she wanted to wear the dress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She wanted to surprise her dad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And just like that…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Greyson said yes to the dress!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It didn’t have to be a big deal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The dress itself wasn’t anything extravagant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was actually the simplicity of it that made it such a great choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was similar to something she had seen me wear. It wasn’t overly fancy or complicated. And most importantly, she chose it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

That last part mattered the most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As parents, especially when we’re parenting a child with sensory differences, we learn to pay attention to the things our children don’t like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We learn their preferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We learn their triggers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We learn what fabrics they tolerate, what clothing feels comfortable, what sends them into a meltdown, and what they absolutely will not wear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that’s important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I think it’s also important to remember that our children’s preferences can change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes they surprise us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes something they said “no” to yesterday becomes something they’re willing to try tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And sometimes they just need the opportunity to make the choice for themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A little independence. A big moment.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I didn’t need Greyson to wear a dress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was never a goal that said, “We have to get Greyson into a dress.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If she had chosen the slacks and turtleneck, that would have been perfectly fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The important thing was that she had a choice.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And this time, she chose the dress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even better?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She wasn’t doing it because I asked her to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She wasn’t doing it because I bought it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She wasn’t doing it because I thought it would be cute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She wanted to do it because she had decided she wanted to surprise her dad.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that made the moment so much sweeter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dress I bought for Greece and Italy never made it out of the suitcase\u2014or, more accurately, the closet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it finally had its moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And it was on Greyson’s terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For one special night, our girl who doesn’t usually say yes to dresses…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

said yes to the dress.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And Daddy got the surprise she had planned all along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay Tuned! More to come about Daddy\/Daughter Date Night! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
