Hugs, kisses and hide-seek!
October 3rd, 2006Lil’ Duck’s daddy has been working a lot of late, but last night he finally couldn’t wait for Daddy any more. He started howling and yelling for “Da-da, car, home, vroom-vroom, play me!”. I tried to distract him, asking him what he would do when Daddy did come home.
Little did I know, I was unleashing upon myself an hour’s worth of “Da-da, daaaaaaa-daaaaaaaa, hug, da-da, kiss, da-da, hide-seek me!” Thankfully, after that hour, the beloved daddy did arrive home, resulting in the happiest hour of the day for the little guy as Daddy played games with him tirelessly from 9:30pm until he fell asleep around 11pm.
Never underestimate how attached a little one can get to his Daddy, even if he isn’t home very often!

How sweet! My daughter is crazy about her Daddy, too. He’s like a rock star in our house. He walks in the door and there’s a lot of jumping, screaming, and sometimes even a few tears of joy. Mommy’s fine and all, but no one plays with her quite like Daddy.
Oh, how sweet! enjoy it, enjoy it! your post brought back dear memories…only our little one is a freshman in college now. Believe it: time does fly by!
Last summer, my wife took the kids to visit her sister. That very night my three-year old son is on the phone telling me he misses me and wants me to pick him up now. But I couldn’t pick him because he was too far away (6-hour round trip). He called me every night for a week and drove my wife crazy.
That is so adorable. My little one asks for her daddy first things when i pick her up. she will continue to ask for daddy all the way home. Good thing he’s there when we get home, or she would just continue asking.
