Let's Count, Olivia!

And so my wife finally comes across this link

It's actually been in my browser favorites since way back so I can easily come back to it and to be honest, I really remember a lot of these on the list since I first read it. I also shared it online at the time if I remember correctly. It's a really nice list that all dads can put in as a little guideline for the little things. 

With this, I plan to go over each so that one day Olivia can also read back into my thoughts on this list.

OK. For #1 it says

"1. Love her mom. Treat her mother with respect, honor, and a big heaping spoonful of public displays of affection. When she grows up, the odds are good she’ll fall in love with and marry someone who treats her much like you treated her mother. Good or bad, that’s just the way it is. I’d prefer good."

So, Olivia, I guess I'm on the right track since I love your mom. She always gets respect and honor. I think she needs more PDA so I shall make a change. I just don't know with our culture being Filipino because so far I'm good at holding hands, putting my arms around her and sometimes kissing her head. She recently joked about how in movies, couples suddenly kiss out of nowhere while in public so I guess I have to put that in my to do list.... something like we're walking and then I'll just stop and put my hand under her chin and pull her close to me. hahaha I can just imagine your mom laughing right when I'm about to pull her towards me. But I hope you remember that I always show you how I hug your mommy and even call you to see how I hug and kiss her... if you're reading this and you're older, then what you usually do is make a face like "can I join, dad?" then you try to crawl towards us and we of course squeeze you in and then you get squished because mom and dad are attackin you with kisses already hehe

Reading into #1, I would stop and won't comment now about who you'll marry even if he ends up like me who loves you like I love your mom. Not now hehe I'm still the only man in your life so let's live with that for now OK?

Love,
Daddy
