My Little Girl Turns Seven

My little girl, Emily, is seven today. Watching my daughter grow up feels different, harder somehow, than watching her two brothers get older. The bond between a father and a daughter is unlike anything else. Other dads with both sons and daughters will understand it, even if it is difficult to explain. The love feels deeper, not greater, but different.

Maybe it is her perceived vulnerability. As a man, I know what men can be capable of, and I feel an instinctive need to protect her. It is in my nature. But I often ask myself, do I smother her? Am I too protective? I know she needs the freedom to grow and flourish, and that sometimes the best kind of love is background support, quiet and steady rather than loud and overbearing.

I adore her hugs. They come several times a day, and each one melts my heart. I dread the day when they stop being a daily occurrence. Maybe that is why I hold her so close. Maybe I am the vulnerable one. Maybe it is my own insecurities I am projecting.

I also wonder sometimes, am I a hypocrite or even a mild misogynist for treating her differently to my boys? I hope not. Parenting is complicated. We love all our children equally, but love expresses itself in different ways.

And the truth is, Emily is no fragile flower. She is strong, determined, and fiercely competitive. She is an incredible little sportswoman, more driven to win than her brothers and completely unwilling to accept defeat. She has courage and spirit in abundance.

So maybe she does not need my protection as much as I think she does. Maybe she just needs my belief, my trust, and my quiet confidence that she can handle the world.

She will be all right. She will be more than all right. She is Emily. And she is already amazing.

Birthdays and the Passing of Time

This weekend my youngest child, Cian, turned five, and in just a couple of days, Emily turns seven. Birthdays have always been special to me, but as I grow older, they have taken on a deeper meaning. They are moments of reflection, reminders of how far we have come as a family and how precious every day truly is.

As an older-than-average dad, I sometimes feel the passing of time more keenly. Birthdays remind me that childhood is fleeting, that every giggle, every tantrum, every bedtime story, and every morning hug is part of a season that will not last forever. It seems like only yesterday these little people were born — tiny, fragile, and dependent — and now they are growing into independent, funny, confident children with their own voices, opinions, and dreams.

Watching them run, laugh, and live with such joy fills my heart. Their excitement over cake, balloons, and presents may fade as they grow older, but for now, it is pure magic. Their laughter is infectious. Their happiness is mine.

Being a father has given my life new meaning. Loving and cherishing my children completes me in ways I never imagined possible. Yes, parenthood is tiring, demanding, and sometimes overwhelming, but it is also the most fulfilling and rewarding journey I have ever known.

Every birthday reminds me to slow down, to be present, to put my phone away, and to live these moments fully. Because one day, they will be older, busy with their own lives, and I will look back on these days with a mix of pride and nostalgia.

My cup is full. My heart is grateful. And I know that being their father is the greatest privilege of my life.
