Hello all,
Here is a note from daddy to his now 2 year old daughter.
To my daughter on her second birthday,
It is the rare father that gets this much time with his daughter. You and I, everyday, all day. We have more time than most. You will not realize for many years yet how weird it is for daddy to be around this much. He is always there. Sometimes times he leaves but that is more the exception than the rule.
2 full years of getting to be with you and teach you everything that I could possibly have hoped to pass onto a toddler. You, in learning and growing, have made daddy so proud. To go out and here people tell me how well behaved you are and how much of a daddy’s girl you are makes me smile. As I always say, I have very little to be proud of from my own accomplishments but, as you continue to grow and mature and as you continue on to develop in Christ I can rest satisfied knowing that of all things that could be gained in this life, the things which matter more than the rest are mine already.
Now for requests from daddy to you.
1) Please learn to use the bathroom.
2) Please swallow your food.
3) Please learn to like shows other than elmo’s world.
4) Please stop swearing (admittedly, that is my fault).
5) Please stop waking up early on Saturday.
Daddy loves you.
