The bond between dad and daughter is one of the cutest and most endearing things around. There is just something about a little girl that completely steals the dad’s heart. A son is awesome, don’t get me wrong, but a little girl has the ability to wrap her dad around her finger and get whatever she wants.
It’s a good thing, too! For all the boys out there, they need to get through dad first!
Even as adults, dads are always aware of the boys that their girls are around. The classic “introduction to the boyfriend” usually involved some references to firearms! It is all well and good, however. Dads just love their daughters.
This video shows how much a dad loves his little newborn.
In this viral video, we get a closeup view of that incredible love. Dad is sitting on the floor holding his precious little girl in his arms. She is wearing a little white t-shirt and at the current moment, completely surrounded by dad!
Holding her in his hands and steadying her head, Dad is just taking in the fatherly moment.
Coming off the heels of fathers day, many dads are feeling a bit sentimental out there! When you see little moments like this you can’t help but feel your heart melt. The sentimentality is well earned for many dads. Their relationship is so influential for their little girls.
The father-daughter relationship is crucial in the development of the little one.
She Knows is a parenting blog that god into some details based upon a study from Eastern Kentucky University. They highlight how valuable a strong fatherly influence is in a little girl’s life. She Knows says:
A positive father-daughter relationship can have a huge impact on a young girl’s life and even determine whether or not she develops into a strong, confident woman.
The research showed that there is something about the way that a dad approaches life that is instrumental for the daughter to see and develop under.
Michael Austin is a professor who details some of the behaviours that a daughter picks up from dad.
Babies are always watching! The problem is that they never stop watching, even into adulthood. Austin speaks to the behaviors that daughters get from watching their dad:
“What matters in the father-daughter relationship is that Dad seeks to live a life of integrity and honesty, avoiding hypocrisy and admitting his own shortcomings so that she has a realistic and positive example of how to deal with the world. He should try to model a reflective approach to life’s big questions so that she can seek to do the same,”
The little girl in the video obviously has a dad who cares.
As the two sit, the dad gently looks at the most beautiful thing he ever saw. What else can he do but sing! As he starts to sing the lyrics to “You Are So Beautiful”, the little one looks up and starts to giggle.
Letting her gummy smile show through, this little one is as happy as can be.
This is one special relationship. Finishing it off with a smooch, dad plants one on her, satisfied with his work. This girl will never have to worry about her confidence with a dad like that.
