I love My Daughter



“Ordinary father-daughter love had a charge to it that generally was both permitted and indulged. There was just something so beautiful about the big father complementing the tiny girl. Bigness and tininess together at last—yet the bigness would never hurt the tininess! It respected it. In a world in which big always crushes tiny, you wanted to cry at the beauty of big being kind of and worshipful of and being humbled by tiny. You couldn’t help but think of your own father as you saw your little girl with hers.” – Meg Wolitze

My daughter is always on my mind, in my prayers and in my heart.

A daughter is a treasure and a cause of sleeplessness.-Ben Sirach

Never grow a wishbone, daughter, where your backbone ought to be.Clementine Paddleford

Every day is Father’s Day to me when I’m with her: when I’ll be able to hold my daughter and see her grow and see her smile. That’s Father’s Day to me every day.- Saquon Barkley

When I come home, my daughter will run to the door and give me a big hug, and everything that’s happened that day just melts away. -Hugh Jackman

Certain is it that there is no kind of affection so purely angelic as of a father to a daughter. In love to our wives there is desire; to our sons, ambition; but to our daughters, there is something which there are no words to express.*Joseph Addison

A daughter may outgrow your lap, but she will never outgrow your heart.

A daughter is a bundle of firsts that excite and delight, giggles that come from deep inside and are always contagious, everything wonderful and precious and your love for her knows no bounds.- Barbara Cage
