These two have a special bond. Made even more so by the BIG (much anticipated) event tonight! Michael saved this date for her, just her. We rescheduled all kinds of plans around this special evening; the Daddy-Daughter Dance! She has been waiting WEEKS for this special night! She even napped, of her own will and testament, this afternoon (with the door open).
Her Daddy went out and bought her something very special. Made especially for his little girl and nobody else! He put it on her himself and she was tickled pink!! I think the significance of such a gesture was unrecognized by Mia. One day, when she's older, she will understand. Or, perhaps, once she gets to the dance, she will get how truly touching it was that her Daddy bought her a corsage for her first (EVER) Daddy-Daughter dance.
We curled her hair, put on make up, she is wearing my pearls (gasp!!) and he is in a sports coat and tie! I tried to make her little ringlets. Tried... No matter what I did, it was going to be beautiful and she was going to love it. I love that about Mia! Granny and I took her to the salon and had her nails painted; silver fingernails and pink toes. She even bought a special dress and shoes for the occasion!
My handsome husband!! Although, tonight, he is HER handsome Daddy. She told him so!
Showing off her corsage and finger nails! My absolutely beautiful daughter!! On the inside and out!
Mum: "Where are you going Boo?"
Mia: "To the Daddy-Daughter Dance, of course!!"
They were supposed to go to Cheesecake Factory for dinner. The wait was 30 minutes so alternative arrangements were made. Of which, we will wait for the details. I'm tempted to sneak over to the middle school and peek... I can't help myself...
aw, how incredibly sweet! Your daughter's eyes are mesmerizing! What a wonderful day for both of them!
