Thirteen years ago I held my precious princess for the very first time and felt the enormous weight of responsibility for this magnificent human being. This was the first time in my life the world felt scary and at the same time, felt the happiest I’d ever felt. We’ve navigated through many obstacles to get to this point, it hasn’t been easy, but we’ll certainly keep navigating as best we can. I am so glad to have taken advantage of all the Daddy/Daughter time possible because I can already see that slippin’ by as she metamorphoses into her teenage years. She will always be my baby girl, occasionally my little knucklehead, but always my lil’ mama. #HappyBirthdayMama . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #ILoveMyDaughter #MyMarissaP #MyManzanita🍎 #Happy13th #HappyBirthdayMija #HappyBirthdayToYou #MarissaAndDaddy https://www.instagram.com/p/CeUaAFQpkdH7wLkbqQyNCvuNKHAm52Vo_KZUtE0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
