A gift of love

"A daughter is a gift of love."

Sons and Daughters

"A son is a son till he takes him a wife, 
               a daughter is a daughter all of her life."

Fathers and daughters

"They say
    that from the instant he lays eyes on her,
a father adores his daughter.
        Whoever she grows up to be,
          she is always to him that little girl
in pigtails.
    She makes him feel like Christmas.
       In exchange,
  he makes a secret promise
           not to see the awkwardness
                  of her teenage years,
          the mistakes she makes or
the secrets she keeps."

My heart

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