Raising a Girl

Adam received a book for Christmas from his grandmother called "Father to Daughter" Life Lessons on Raising a Girl. The very first entry really touched us. I thought I would share it with you.
***********************************************************************************
Raising a girl takes two parents:
A Mom to show her how to be a woman.
A dad to show her how to be independent.
A dad's job is to make his daughter courageous. Fearless. To make her feel beautiful. To give her a sense of adventure. To make her feel secure and confident.
The relationship between a dad and a daughter is very simple. She will love her father and
trust him completely, forever.
Because he's her first love. Her first hero. The first man in her life.
***********************************************************************************

The book is filled with great advice for raising little girls. Starting in infancy and leading up until the day they are married. As a mother it is incredibly amazing to watch the bond that my daughter and her father have together. There is nothing sweeter to watch.
