- Struggling to get the baby in the carseat for the first time, then being a nervous wreck on the way home from the hospital because "no one knows how to drive anymore!"
- Her first "real" bath.
- Looking over at night, watching her breathe.
- Seeing her first tooth FINALLY poking through her gums.
- Watching her try new foods.
- Hearing her say "Mama" or "Daddy".
- Hearing her say, "I love you".
- Brushing her hair.
- Kissing boo-boos.
- The sound of little feet padding down the hallway.
- Heartfelt hugs and slobbery kisses.
- Comforting a broken heart.
- Being comforted when your heart is broken.
- Hearing her sing songs she learned at church.
- Reading the same books so many times that you no longer need the books anymore, you can just recite the words from memory.
- Watching her stare in wonder at Christmas lights (and snow, if you're fortunate enough to live somewhere that gets it).
- Snuggling.
- Seeing her light up when Mommy/Daddy enters the room.
- Planning her wedding (it's NEVER to early to start, and since she's your daughter, YOU get to pay for it...better start saving now).
Well, those are a few of my favorites....I could go on and on, but sooner or later, you'll lose interest.
