Rachel: Hi Daddy!
Dad: Hi Honey. What’s up?
Rachel: Daddy, I scored an 88 on a brutal Managerial Accounting Test!
Dad: Wow, that’s amazing Rachel. Well done! I’m proud of you.
Rachel: OK Daddy. Just wanted to let you know. Gotta run.
Self: “Daddy.”
45 second phone conversation with daughter on car ride home from work. Priceless.

LOL – brief but sweet! 😀 Gone are the days that they linger and talk to us for hours on end. I’m still in that stage where my kids fight for my attention as they share their day with us.
Yes, Meikah…and this “theme” accelerates and your children age. Strap in. 🙂
You know it – priceless and memorable. For you both.
Yes, and a slight streak of sadness with her so far away.
I totally get it – especially when you had the joy of having her in NY for her summer internship.
Beautiful…. When there’s a ‘real’ bond, time is not of importance…!
I’m learning (and accepting) this (slowly) Carolyn…:)
Awww. I miss my dad. . .
🙂
The word father has always been my favorite. If it would have been possible I would have spent my life with my father because nobody in this world can love a Girl more than her father. You made my day, Dave (=
🙂 Sweet Sonia. Thanks for sharing.
Quality time, not quantity. Sweet.
It’s different with sons, but I got a similar call from my oldest son the other day: “Dad, I got the promotion”. Of course you did, son — the world is only beginning to know what I knew all along… 😀
Heartwarming Todd…
Yours, too! You’re a good dad despite what you may tell yourself from time to time. Remember that…
Workin’ it! Thanks.
Those are the moments that living is all about. Well done.
Thanks Rick
So poignant, David. I still call my father Daddy and I’m 48. :-). It’s not the quantity, it’s the quality…
That’s sweet Lori…
I miss mommy, but have chosen to be thankful my children don’t call me Laurie. I’ve heard children use their parent’s “real” and don’t like it. I’ve earned mom,darn it!
No, I’m with you Laurie. Not sure at any age that would fly with me.
My heart…and I know. Same thing here.
🙂
Absolutely!
Absolutely priceless!
It is!
I’ve been “mom” to my daughters for at least a decade but my 20-yr-old son still calls me “mommy.” Priceless indeed.
Heartwarming that he still does that LaDona…
PRICELESS!
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
Yes it is!
Very precious, and congrats to Rachel. 🙂
She is. Thank you
So sweet 🙂 You must be very, very proud of Rachel 🙂
Thanks Sarah. I am…
So sweet, David. My granddaughter called a few weeks ago from UBCO to tell me her high mark of 98% – in one of her mid-terms – am so glad we still connect with grandchildren!!! They are soooo special!!!
Yes, yes they are Verna.
That’s a very nice call to get.
Yes it is Anneli. Yes it is.
Awww…I love that you’re Daddy and that instead of being like my Dad who would have growled that it wasn’t an A, you were supportive, loving and a real Daddy. You Rock! 🙂
I’m going to copy your comment and send it to my kids and tell them that I Rock. Can’t wait to get their reaction. Thank you!
Precious moments!
They are!
