[toebeandada]

Daddy who stopped drinking because he remembered Babygirl told him about the times other people were mean to her drunk.

Daddy who says no to his friends begging him to go out on Friday night because he's worked all day and missed her so intensely

Daddy who makes his plans around his Babygirl, but still wants her to go out with her friends even though he'll sit and worry the whole time.

Daddy who can give her some freedom because he knows his arms are the ones Babygirl will come back to.

[toebeandada]

Daddy with his whole heart to give, Babygirl who won't stomp all over it.

[toebeandada]

All Daddy has are these strong arms, his caring nature, veiny hands, his protective possessiveness, calm authority, soothing words, and his deep and abiding love for his babygirl.

It's not enough. He needs to be the best he can be for her.

[toebeandada]

Daddy wants the best for his little babygirl. In all things. In every aspect of her life.

When she's unsure, he will guide her.

When she's sad, he'll try to make her smile.

When she's upset, he will reassure her.

When she needs cuddles, his arms are right there just for her.

When she's happy he will share her joy.

And he will always, always, always be proud of the person she is.

Yes Princess, my search history IS 'how to braid hair', 'perfect temperature for little food', 'printable reward charts for good behaviour', 'best cute picnic foods' 'nearest build-a-bear' & 'best onesie review 2025'. What else did you expect?

[toebeandada]

A picnic date really is the perfect time for Daddy to spend some time with his Babygirl.

A pretty blankie to sit on, food to pop into her mouth, his warm chest for her to lay her head on.

It doesn't even matter if it rains. Daddy has thought of it already, and brought his big umbrella to sit under, holding hands, listening to the sound of the raindrops pattering on the fabric.

Just spending time together. Nothing else matters.

[toebeandada]

I just want to hold her while she sleeps. That’s all. Nothing more than my strong daddy arms around her so she can sleep peacefully in the knowledge I’m always going to be here for my babygirl.

Gentle whispers when I can tell she’s fighting, so that one day she will know I’ll always do all I can to protect her, and to help her thrive.

That she doesn’t have to worry about if I’m going to be there or not, because Daddy is the first thing babygirl sees when she wakes.

[toebeandada]

Daddy is protective of his little girl because he knows how the world can be mean.

Daddy is possessive over his little girl because he knows what some men are like.

Daddy is jealous about his little girl because he wants to be the best for her and sometimes worries he isn't.

Daddy is sometimes controlling with his little girl because he only wants things right, and his experience can help her.

Daddy loves his little girl, and wants her to know it.

[toebeandada]

No one understands the yearning that Daddy has when his girl has to be away from him.

It's crushing. Destroying. Horrendous. Worrying. Every second is a second too long.

But it makes the times they do have together all the sweeter.

[toebeandada]

Daddy sees you princess. He sees the things you want him to see. The excitement, the happiness. But he also sees the things you don't. Your beauty even though you say you're not. Your smarts despite your claims. Your ability, even when you say can't. Your sweetness even when you're raging. Never think he doesn't see the whole of you, and loves every part.

[toebeandada]

No poppet, you don't have to do anything. I've planned our picnic, so I will make sure everything is perfect for it. The weather forecast is good, I have the blanket to sit on, all the food prepared because I know you want to lay on my chest while I feed you it.

All you have to do is be excited for it, and I can see you are. Now hold my hand while we walk there.

That's MY good girl.

[toebeandada]

It doesn’t matter how bad daddy’s day has been. One word from HIS girl makes it all ok.

Doesn’t matter what it is, an excited squeal, her needing to tell him something that happened, needing advice, or needing to vent. Just that she wants to speak to HIM before anyone else is all he needs

[toebeandada]

Yes, I'm older than you. Yes, I'm taller than you. Of course I can pick you up in my arms, silly. Yes, I have a responsible real world job. Yes, I like reading bedtime stories. Yes, yes, and knowing the names of all your stuffies. And no, I'm not afraid to put you in your place when it's needed. Hahaha yes sweetie, my voice is a lot deeper and calmer than yours, but your voice is like a song every time you speak. Yes, I'll help you with that, after you eat all your dinner. No, I really don't mind if you want to call me Dad while we (character limit reached)

[toebeandada]

Daddy who holds your hand because you have a tendency to wander off chasing shiny things.

Daddy who holds your hand because he likes how soft yours is and how little it looks clasped inside his.

Daddy who holds your hand because he's not afraid to show the world that you're his little girl.

Daddy who holds your hand so no one else does, because that's just unthinkable.

[toebeandada]

Daddy needs to learn shared lucid dreaming, so I can enter her nightmares and protect her from the things in there.

The cuddles help. The kisses. The reassurance. The stability. But it still feels like Daddy should do more. She's HIS girl. His responsibility to love and cherish and protect.

[toebeandada]

Buying her a teddie bear and giving her it is great.

Taking her to choose one together is better.

[toebeandada]

Daddy’s inner monologue while he cuddles his baby

God she’s so adorable.

If anything ever tries to hurt her then I swear I will destroy it

I want to hold this adorable little thing forever. I’m never letting go.

How did I get so lucky? She’s everything to me.

I know the world sometimes hurts her. I’m going to do everything I can to keep her safe.

Daddy’s actual words

Shhhh, daddy loves you
