Daughters Are Angels

When my wife was pregnant with our first child, we didn’t want to know if it would be a boy or a girl. So she asked me: “What you are expecting… will it be a boy or girl?

If we have a boy, I’ll teach him life“, I replied. “We will go for sports, I will teach him hunting, fishing and so on.

She laughed: “Ha.. Ha.. And what if it’s a girl?

If we have a girl,” I answered, “I won’t have to teach her anything. Because she will be the one who will teach me everything, again… like how to dress, how to do her hair, how to eat, what to say, what not to say. In short, she will be my second mom. She will see me as her hero even if I do not do anything special, she’ll always understand when I’ll say no about something. She’ll always compare her husband to me. No matter how old she is, she’ll always want me to treat her as my baby girl. She’ll fight with the world for me and if someone hurts me, she will never forgive that person.

So you mean to tell me that your daughter will do all those things but your son would not?“, asked my wife.

No.. no!”, I said. “Maybe he will do the same but he will learn to do them. But daughters are born with it. Being the father of a daughter is the pride for any man.

Then she said: “But, she will not be with us forever.

Yes, but we will be with her, in her heart, forever,” I continued. “So it really doesn’t make a difference where she goes.

Daughters are Angels… Born with Unconditional Love & Care… Forever.

I am blessed with two amazing and beautiful daughters.
