So Papa B and I were talking the other night about silly things he does to entertain Little C. She has a little toy that sings the ABC song and when she presses it, he will dance merrily while singing along. He hugs her, kisses her, and does wonderfully daddy things for her. He is a wonderful dad, and for that I am very lucky and thankful.
I asked him would he be so silly had Little C been a boy. He said, probably not. Papa B grew up with his dad and brother and needless to say, it was a manly, stoic, no-affection childhood.
To see him dote on his little girl and love on her and show her open affection and tell her he loves her is a wonder. I'm glad she arrived first, so he knows now how to love a child, and not just a girl child. Boys deserve the same love and affection from both parents. Boys need to hear that they are loved. Boys need hugs. Boys need kisses and cuddles. I'm glad Little C has paved the way for any more children, regardless of sex.
