When Daughters Outgrow your Arms!

WHEN DAUGHTERS OUTGROW YOUR ARMS!
"MY DAUGHTER YOU ARE THE ANSWER TO EVERY TIME I LOOKED UP  AT THE SKIES AND ASKED FOR A MIRACLE!"
One of the most memorable and most cherished moment of my life was the birth of my Daughter, and will always remain the same. I am sure it would be the same for many Fathers too. They are bundles of joy, smiling, giggling, crying, and even at times shrieking but they will always instill life into your soul. Not the least to mention those funny yet very emotional moments and experiences of those smelly diapers, the trusted "Grand Ma" or for some "Dai Ma" giving her trademark massage, and "Dhoop Shek" , the burps and that content face when she has had her fill and falls off to sleep in a slumber with a sweet smile on her face.
Time flies past, she grows, now a toddler, first crawling all around the house, then prancing around, knocking whatever she likes, and what better way to reduce your weight than having a child in a home to run around with! That small bundle of joy that barely was an arms length outgrows your arms, now growing up to be a child who feels shy of being carried around, confident to face the world on her own feet. As the years pass she grows on through her adolescence , a striking strong headed , yet confident teenager, and takes her first stride to face the world on her own. The fears, the cares, the concerns are always the same and will never grow out of a Fathers mind even when she grows up and moves on to an adult life and happy family of her own. The love and warmth of those wonderful childhood moments will linger on forever. As we grow old we may not be able to carry our children in our arms but they will always live in our hearts forever.

How grateful I am that regardless of time or distance , daughters are and will still remain your daughters. She has always remained your friend and will always remain one forever. I will always need my daughter, no matter what age I am. My daughter has made me laugh, made me proud, made me cry, seen me cry, hugged me tight, seen me fail, held my hand and cheered me to make me successful, kept me on my toes, and even driven me crazy at times, but my daughter is a promise that I will have a friend forever!
When Daughters outgrow your arms, all you need to do is hold back, revive those fond memories and ride on the waves of those happy moments, because daughters will remain daughters, the biggest blessing of your lives, and friends forever!
