Daddy daughter dance.

She loves bigger than her smile, and is the light in any room.  With a new baby in the house and a big brother who loves the center stage we certainly hope she knows how much love we have for her, because she truly melts us.  
Barry scored tickets to a special daddy daughter dance and had asked her if she would want to go with him.  For weeks she talked about it and asking us daily if it was her "Friday yet, is it daddy daughter dance yet?"
I brought home her dress one day and she could not wait to put it on to show Barry.  She picked out the perfect shoes to go with it and she loved trying them on and practicing her dance twirls.  
I know she's only three, but getting her ready for a fancy night out, fixing her hair, and seeing how excited she was to go out with her date gave me a glimpse of years to come.  
The morning of the dance she informed me she needed her nails painted, and I could have died!  I had never mentioned anything about it and it is hilarious to me that that was on her mind.  
Our light saber, super hero loving princess traded in her cape for a dress and glittery bow; nothing like a well rounded girl to knock a man's socks off.  
 and knock his socks off she did.  I'm so thankful for the father B is to our children, he is exceptional in many ways but what a perfectly loving daddy to a little girl.  This night made her feel so special and adored just as God's royal child should. 

 As excited as she was to go dance with daddy, nothing put a smile on her face like Henry hopping in for a picture.  She literally grinned ear to ear and wrapped her arms around him so tight I wasn't sure she'd let go. 
 and neither was he. 
 The night was so sweet and special, and I look forward to more daddy daughter moments like this where she learns what true love looks and feels like, knows her worth and has her expectations set high. 





So did she have fun?  Yes, but she could have done without all the cowbells.  Her favorite restaurant came in full force surving food and filling the dance floor with mascot cows on the dance floor.  She was less than comfortable with these dressed up animals walking around on two legs with top hats and tutus.  So they left that dance a bit early and headed out with a friend for some ice cream.  I think we can call it a win, and I get excited thinking of her doing it again.
