I had a heart swelling moment yesterday while thinking about this past Father’s Day. It had something to do with a certain little girl and crayons and paper and stickers and glitter and a truly from the heart Father’s Day card. Love is imagining the future relationship that your daughter is going to have with her daddy. She adores him now, but just wait till she can tell him! Imagine all the hand made cards and notes and gifts from her little heart. If daddy wasn’t already wrapped around her little finger, I have no doubt that her little grasp will become even tighter.

Love is that on the two occasions that I stepped away from the computer while writing this Love Thursday post I walked straight into some really sweet daddy – daughter moments. The first one had to do with a favorite new Laurie Berkner music and singing dvd and watching my husband help Ella stomp around to the music. The second was after I heard a thud and came out to see him holding and comforting the little miss who had just whacked her head on the floor (don’t worry – she’s fine!) I wonder which member of the duo is more taken with the other, because they’re both clearly smitten.

I know it’s a bit belated, but Father’s Day was nice; we got to spend it with both grandpas over a really good lunch where Ella literally ate for two hours straight. She presented the “kids” card to daddy and was pretty pleased with herself :) Every now and then my husband makes a comment that I think is actually a warning to the future suitors that may cross Ella’s path. Of course we have a very long time before we need to be thinking of such things, but I predict that this daddy’s going to have a hard time letting his little girl loose into the world!
