my little girl, when she was around 4/5. her and her cousin, same age, were in a park playing in a broken sprinkler head. they were innocently taking turns putting their feet on top, removing it to watch the water spray up and get wet.

well, this little boy walks up, watches for a couple minutes, and like most kids stuck his foot in to have a turn.

my little girl freezes, face turns to stone cold serious, takes two fingers, places it on boys forehead, and gives him a shove back, like wtf are you?

she's 40lbs soaking wet and the smallest thing, but I have no doubt she will take care of herself

Everyday I see my daughter I can see some sort of change towards her milestones.

Her rolling over at 3 months or her first steps at 9 months, 1st birthday, her imitating me when I'm sweeping or scrubbing the floor, lol each moment is amazing.

We was in a Winn Dixie one time at the check out line and my son was two at the time. Anyway there was a black lady that had to be four hundred or close to it in front of us. He blurts out " How did you get so fat?" Me and my wife are trying to shush him then he cries even louder " but daddy she is fat!".,,,,but he and his sister have made me proud of them many times over, the latest was him graduating LSU recently with his M.E. degree

One of my girls was about 2 and she was bouncing a bouncy ball in the driveway and bounced it pretty high one time. It came down right on top of her head and she turned to her mom and said "aww shite!" through her nu nu. The glare my wife gave me was priceless.

Understandable man, If I knew I would have to sexually assault a woman to make a baby, I wouldn't want them either.

Too many to count. Being a father is the most amazing thing. Especially when they are young. They grow and mature so fast. Recently,y proudest moment was my 2 year old telling me she had to pee pee and becoming completely potty trained.

The moment I cut the umbilical cord on each of my three kids. Now when they give me shite I can really say I brought you into this world and I can take your arse out of it also.

When I got called into my sons principal office because he got caught playing doctor with two girls in the bathrooom.



Now the awkward moment I had to face the two sets of parents was rough. But still, if my son was old enough (hes 6) to drink I would have given him a beer.

You'll change your tune when you found out she lost it to to a senior BBC that's committed to UGA and she tells you she wants to follow him to Athens

Her first steps.

I went through a NASTY divorce, and during that time my ex wife wouldn't let me see my daughter for several months. The very first time I got to see her, she just pawed at my face and stared at me.

Her sharing her ice cream with me.

Her expression when I told her she would stay with me from now on.

The first time she performed at school.

Her first straight A report card.

The first one she saved a goal.

The first time she swam the entire pool.

Every day she does something that I quietly celebrate.

Hell, the way the world is going, there's solid odds that your son could be your daughter by 2040

So many proud moments so far being a dad but one that kinda sticks out, I got a call from school office when I got there they told me my 1st grader had been in a fight, his teacher told me a 3rd grader punched him, he got right back up and nailed that boy in the nose he fell down crying for a teacher.. my son knows how to take care of a bully

Not sure it's necessarily a "proud" moment, other than "Wow, I helped make this". But the first social smile is a feeling to behold forever.

As far as proud, It was a little big things for me. Walking ranks up there, as does being able to write his and her own name . Of course "Dada" is the shits.

That's funny you say that. I was about to comment on that. My son had never played baseball before and was on a six-year-old team. He was playing centerfield. The very first pitch of the very first game someone hit a fly ball to centerfield and he caught it. It's the small things that rank up there with the bigger accomplishments such as graduation, etc.

not the first, but the proudest Ive ever been is when my son was 11, he hit a walk off 2 run homer to win their state tournament. Probably my first proudest moment when he learned to shite by himself and wipe his own arse.
