I had the honor of attending the Father Daughter Daffodil Dance for my princess's girl scout troop tonight. We went out last week to pick our clothes for the event. As you can tell, I gave her free reign to choose what I was going to wear. :-) #1257398Jeff E Jensen April 11, 2010
This is a great series Tony! I especially love the POV and DOF on Proud Papa. I'm guessing you had a lot of fun. #8525704Rita K. Connell April 11, 2010

I am soo-o-o happy for you Tony. And for your princess as well. The joy that children bring to our lives is nothing short of a miracle and a loving father (and mother) are the building blocks of a child's life.You brought out my feminine side with these shots!! OK. OK. I LIKE the pink matching outfits. OK? Can I go change the oil on the truck now? :o)
Ladies, I'm a little disappointed in your responses to these images. Not a word about how good looking the proud father is. Course when Peter and I were that age we weren't bad either, right Peter? Peter? #8527085

Gotta love a man in pink! No really you do look good in pink! And what sweet shots of you two together...I really like the last one...just her expression and you can even get a feel for your expression. Gives me a warm fuzzy feeling! :~) #8527125Rita K. Connell April 11, 2010
hay.... Dale I said she had good taste!!! #8527147Anthony L. Mancuso April 11, 2010
Thanks for all the hearfelt comments everyone. I don't get a lot of one on one time with her and it was great to share that time together. I was a little hesitant about the pink but I must admit I do kinda like it...now excuse me while I go lift weights, drink beer and talk about sports.BTW Dale, you and Peter are both like fine wines, you are improving with age ;-) #8527198

Yup, there's not much better than some good Daddy-Daughter time. I try to take my girls out on a date every once in a while. When my oldest was about 6, we had a date scheduled one Friday night. I stopped at the store on the way home from work and picked her up some roses. You'd have thought she had died and gone to heaven. #8527349Michael Kelly April 12, 2010
These are great Tony! I like the pink and no need to go drink beer either.Some of my best memories are times my daughter and I got to go off on our own. Both my wife and I had some of these bonding trips with her though most were with all of us together. The trips alone with her were special and I will always treasure those memories. #8528565

Awww Jeff that's so sweet! I know I would have been on top of the world if my Dad had gotten me flowers when I was little. I don't have any daughters...any ideas for something I could do for my son to make him feel special? I'm talking about Zain the oldest who is 7. #8528716Jeff E Jensen April 12, 2010
My wife takes our 6 year old son out on dates. His favorite thing is to go for ice cream. He also gets a kick out of her sitting on the floor and playing Lego's with him. I guess life is much simpler when you are 6 - Ice cream and Legos. Sounds good to me. #8528758Anthony L. Mancuso April 12, 2010
Thanks Mike, I know I will treasure that memory for a long time as well.Ice cream should do the trick Aimee, seven year olds are easy to please. If you are not too girly girl you could get also some nets and try to catch tadpoles, frogs or salamandars if you have any water or wetlands near you. My son loves looking for that stuff and its great bonding time. #8529641
Aimee C. Eisaman April 13, 2010
Thanks for the ideas guys! I do play catch with him now and then. We do have alot of streams around here....might have to check that out! :~) I'm sooo not girly girl so it would be great! #8531214Aimee C. Eisaman April 15, 2010
Congrats on the EP....so glad to see it on this one! :~) #8537983Anthony L. Mancuso April 15, 2010
Thanks Aimee..I was too :-) #8538031Dale Hardin April 15, 2010
Congratulations on the EP Tony. I really like this shot because is says so much about you. You can see from her face that she not only loves you but has complete trust that Daddy is always there for her. #8538264Anthony L. Mancuso April 16, 2010
