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 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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

What a nice picture. Congratulations!
(Oh, and . . . I'm sorry that you're losing her. But you're not losing her. Well, you know what I mean.

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

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.

Hey.
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....

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.
