Mine is 23 … I can count on one hand how many fights that we’ve had. She was easy and is still sweet as ever.
We’ve literally had zero trouble from any of our 3 kids.

Wait until she's a teenager. You will then know why some animals eat their young.

She might be. Mine is 14 now and still falls dead arse asleep with her mouth wide open when I pick her up from school. She's been doing that forever. She's overall still sweet too and doesn't understand why some of her friends treat their parents like shite.

Little girls are awesome. There’s a rough patch between 12-18, although ours was more like 12-16. Once in their 20s they kind of revert back to awesome little girls, just much busier

You're in for a rude awakening.

They can, but only if you convert to the One True Religion. Keep Sweet!

My oldest daughter will turn 47 Sunday. Time.

Not sure if I learned anything new about women that I didn’t know before, but I did grow up in a family with a mother and sister. I’m sure sons are great, but we were ecstatic when we learned that our next kid was a female. We were never disappointed.

Nice. My experience was a bit different growing up. I didn’t know that women farted for most of my childhood. I grew up with a bunch of brothers and only one sister. Mom and my sister were the “girls don’t fart” type and were prissy about a lot of stuff.
I eventually figured it out when I was a teenager when my sister farted like a Clydesdale one day without realizing that I was around.

Enjoy every minute, OP, because you can't predict exactly how many more you will have.
My experience raising a daughter as a single dad was uniquely challenging due to the fact that she was "profoundly gifted" intellectually. Matured mentally at the speed of light and was pretty much a small adult by age ten, though lacking in experience of course. She started attending classes at a university at the age of eleven and is soon to be a doctor.
The double whammy was that she was also physically beautiful, and likewise hit puberty early, so that by age 12 an AI imaging software analysis estimated her age as 20, which presented a whole different set of issues. Coupled with her obvious mental maturity and vocabulary, it was easy for people to mistakenly presume she was an adult. She was still my little girl of course, and still is.

That’s awesome man. Mine got home from college today. I just cooked her dinner and she is so freaking tired. I can tell she needed a weekend home.

No you don't. The beauty of parenthood is seeing all of the stages, both sweet and challenging, to hopefully create a beautifully well-rounded person
Unfortunately, this is true. Have faith in them though, they'll come through with a solid upbringing.

Absorb these moments - lock them away in your deepest memory.
Someday, these memories will be worth more than anything else in the world.
I have a file of such memories from my daughter - now a 64 yr old beautiful grandmother and I can still recall many of those moments from 60 years ago.
Eyes are misting up just thinking of it.
You have hit the jackpot - congratulations.

I remember the last time my daughter snuggled up with me on the couch. It was Thanksgiving during her Freshman year of college at Tech. We’d decided to get a condo at Orange Beach that year. We were watching TV and next thing I know she was laying over on my shoulder.
You never know when the last time you pick up your kids is going to be.

Just enjoy it while you can. A day will arrive in the future when you realize you've picked her up for the last time. Mine is 26 now and I'd give anything to be able to go back and relive her childhood all over again.

I have 4 year old and a 21 year old daughters. They grow up and around 14 you want to adopt them out to someone with more patience. Then they leave home and realize you're one of a handful of people that love them unconditionally and start calling home every day, asking for advice, etc. eentually she'll take care of you and finally she'll weep as she watches you die.
Tldr: It's fleeting. Live in the moment and soak it in. If you screw this one up, you can always have more.
