You make me feel warm and fuzzy everyday.
It's as if our relationship has suddenly gone on overdrive ever since you turned 5.
Deep inside, I know you are slipping away, so I have to write this in order to note down all the different ways you love me.
- When I am dejected and sitting at the door, you will be the first one to sit down on my lap, to make me feel better.
- You will request to sleep in my arms every single night.
- You will ask for me when I fail to appear during dinnertime, afraid I was somewhere lost and couldn't find my way back to you.
- You will feed me grapes, candy, chips and Mensho smoked oysters.
- You will lay down on my lap after breakfast in the car every morning until you reach school.
- You will forbid me to shave so that you can play with my stubble.
- You will applaud my every little victory, even on Angry Birds.
- You will raise your hands high up in the air and hug/kiss me goodbye when I leave you at school in the morning.
- You will run to the toilet and hold my hand when I am brushing my teeth

Thank you for loving me Ellie.
And sorry for writing this mushy love letter to you.
It's not that I want everyone to know, I am just afraid I will forget.
Love,
Daddy
