He rocks back and forth
In his arms, a miracle
His newborn daughter
She is unaware
This is everlasting love
The forever bond
She only knows peace
Cuddled in the strongest arms
Of her first hero

My neighbors have a brand new baby girl and this is what I just saw when I glanced out my window. Dad was completely focused on her while he walked her until she fell asleep. It was priceless, I hope he didn’t mind me watching.

Thank you I kept staring and was hoping he wouldn’t notice. Considering that tiny bundle in his arms, I doubt he was aware of anything else. ❤

Thank you Annika. I was captivated, imagining this was me and my dad 59 years ago.
