Ya know reading these posts brought tears to my eyes.....my "little girl" will be 18 on the 3rd of April, and I remeber all of the things you said projectprotoget, about the little fingers and eyes and poopie diapers. youve got some good times in front of you man, raise her rite. The joy that little person will bring to you is UNREAL....... before you know it she will be asking for cash and keys, so savor every moment you can....like me, Im sure you cant wait to hear her say daddy. Mine still calls me daddy, and says Ilove you after every phone call and goodbye.

Congrats.....

Congratulations...........a little late, lol!!

Children are a wonderful addition to our lives. They bring out the best of us, and also give true meaning to life. As I have two of them myself, my daughter is 3 1/2 and my son is 2. And now I look back and can't remember what life was like without them, and also can't imagine it without them.

Also as everyone has said, start them out young, lol!! My two are there by me in the shop ALOT, my little girl knows specifics of tools, sizes of wrenches/sockets are our focus in training right now. My son has a ways to go, he just likes to beat the hell out of things, so I have to make sure he is occupied with something other than the vehicle! His FAVORITE pastime is king of the speaker display!!

Have fun with your little girl, and remember as they say, and I can say from experience, " Daddy's girl, and Mamma's Boy"

Realy late congrats.....................but anyway enjoy it I have a 4 year old and we (me and her) get in alot of trouble from mommy. Their is nothing better than hearing her tell me she loves me before I leave to work, and even better when she is their opening the door saying she missed me whem I get home. As they say above start her out young mine already sits on my lap in front of the computer, and sits beside me when working on my truck. Its great to hear "make the speakers jump daddy". Its so much fun makin mommy mad.
