"Any man can be a father. It takes someone special to be a dad"
Daddy time in our family has always been special & something to look forward to. Zhara used to get to go to the grocery store with Daddy & Alyssa would stay at home with me because she was too little. Then they both grew into big enough girls to take turns going with dad & now anytime they get to go anywhere with Dad, without mom, is so very exciting, but nothing as exciting as our new monthly adventure....Daddy/Daughter dates. Each girl gets a night with Dad. Zhara got to go to Cold Stone where she picked out blueberry muffin mix ice cream, mixed with chocolate shavings, sprinkles & gummy bears in a waffle bowl & being a good Dad & a good sport, he shared it with her & spent the rest of the money on take home ice cream for mom (no gummy bears in mine...thank goodness)
Alyssa got to go to McDonalds with Daddy & they shared a meal & then she got a bobble head stars wars toy.
So even though they have always had alone time with Dad it is now officially "Daddy/daughter dates" and although Alyssa doesn't really get it, Zhara does & it is her highlight for the month. She has been talking about her next turn since the day after she went on her date. I am very grateful for the love that David has for his daughters & that he has a desire for them to know how very special they are to him.

Very cute. My girls get to spend time with James when I work but I think we should make sure to take special time out each month and call it a Daddy/Daughter Date. Cute. Cute. Cute
How funny we both just did daddy posts! Daddys are so very special.
