It was much easier to take her into my arms than it's going to be to watch her go...

I sympathize with you !!!!!!!!!!
I have told my daughter MANY times: "Regardless how old a woman may become, some place, some where, she is still Daddies little girl." The usual response : her eyes roll up and she saws " Daaaaad"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This condition lessens with time. BUT when the grand kids come along, your point of interest changes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cootduster _________________ Retired May 30th 2018, after 41years. I'm not old. I'm just no longer young !!! |

I am thankful I have 2 boys. I'd be a maniac being an overprotective father to a daughter.

Well I'll be the first to say if I had a mother in law as beautiful as you I'd be a happy man...
My little girl is only 2.5 and I really don't want that day to come _________________ If she sits on your face and you can still hear, SHE'S NOT FAT. I'm going to type out 3 paragraphs and wax eloquently about a similar story in my life. Pm me if you figured it out. |

I dread the day my girl isnt around on a daily basis. Its an inevitable evolution that school, marriage, life will force a split in our paths but like all other stages we have to embrace the change and do what we can for our child
I feel ya, enjoy her happiness and congrats |

On the bright side, she looks very happy. Hopefully they aren't moving too far away and you're more adding a new member to the family than losing one.

Looks aren't everything....I'm meaner than a sack of rattlesnakes!  BTW...don't think your girl being 2.5 is safe--she will be moving on, like, tomorrow. I kid you not. That's what happened to me.  Thanks everyone, for the kind words...I had my first sobfest yesterday after writing a sort of 'goodbye' letter to her...upon reading it, it started getting all blurry and the strangest sound started. My 16 y/o boy awkwardly hovered around the noisy creature....Mama NEVER cries....  _________________ I'm on Facebook! http://www.northwestschoolofsafety.com Member, NRA (Life) USCCA, ACLDN, SAF (Life) Certified NRA instructor, RSO, Affiliate instructor for USCCA |

Am old. Over 65. Yet I still have a 15 y/o son and a 17 y/o daughter. When a gf was commenting about how I must be looking forward to the last chicks leaving the nest, I was making weird noises. Then my 5 and 11 y/o granddaughters came in and took over my lap. Be happy mom, it gets better.
