I got to go on a date today with my 3 year old daughter for her birthday. We first went to Dunkin’ donuts and she ate a chocolate donut with sprinkles. Every bite she took was off the top so she could make sure she ate the chocolate. At one point in the conversation I said “That is a pretty dress who made that for you?”, (knowing that her grandma had made that dress) and she said with no hesitation “God.” I did not even argue with her because I like that she gave credit to God for a good gift that she loves. As I was sitting there I realized something: she is a gift and who made her for me? With no hesitation I have to say God. I thought I was going on this date for my daughter to be with her dad and get a dress for her birthday but I think this date was really for me. What a gift my children are form God.
Psalm 127:3 – Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,the fruit of the womb a reward
I twittered some pics of my daddy date.
You're a Dailey, all right. My dad used to take us to Dunkin' Donuts for dates on Saturday mornings, too. Just wait till she's a teenager and you can take her to R-rated action movies.
Er, well, just because Uncle Jim did it, doesn't mean you should.
But you already knew that.
lol… I knew i like Uncle Jim. You know you miss it Laurel.
Aaron D I got to say that girl of yours is an absolute angel!
