Maybe that why she is the way she is. Why she reaches out for me while in her mother’s embrace, or why when she sees me gazelle like, she jumps in my arms. Or why every times she pretends her phone rings she answers “Brain cell; or sit down with her toy laptop on her legs telling me she ordering dogfood too. Yep, maybe, in the rambunctious recalcitrance she gleams, I just smile and say yes or ok.
So I guess I got the best of both world, guess my sperm work like that. First Born is my number one son. Fellas, gotta get you one of them. Second born, baby girl, fellas you gotta get you one of them too.
Especially the latter, I mean the way she crawls on me, lays her head on my shoulder when she is my arms, even how she sleeps in my lap – can u say the bomb. And I really love it when she say “naw folk, we don’t get down like that” or “nothing jones” or “that’s my song.” So fellas, I don’t know what gives. I mean love your kids, I don’t care if they momma crazy or you crazy. Nurture that spirit which has originated from your loin for love sake, and make no excuse and let no obstacle get in your way for doing such.
Cause if u true, learn to live the love in the experience of buying your baby girl cupcakes with pink icing just because she say “I want the pink ones.” I guess money and the economy aint everything. vote

U R right. Money and economy aint everything. Love is. And the unconditional love of the fruit of your loins is the best feeling in the world. Much love to ya!
[And I really love it when she say “naw folk, we don’t get down like that”]
How cute!
Som eof my fave moments are with my bro and he ain't even my kid. Like when I caught him climbing around some boxes and he was whispering to himself '"be careful little boy, be careful."
I thought my heart would melt.
Torrance one of the most precious sights to behold is a black man interacting with his daughter. Kudos to you! I love it.
Talk that talk Papi! I am feelin' all of your descriptions of parenthood for both the man-child and daddy's little girl. My two daughters are 15 and 11 years old ... so I don't seem to get the gazelle-like leaps any more ... but, they will both be daddy's little girl forevermore...
peace, Villager
Your a good man. I miss the little ones and all their interesting questions.
awwwww i love hearing you talk abt your kids. esp your daughter. She is a cutie too :)
aaaw.....pink cupcakes!
that entry is so beautiful!!
Your daughter is so precious :)
Oh, ur n trouble
I think our girls would like each other, my 3 yo is also fond of pink cupcakes. LOL
Heartwarming post. Kids are truly amazing, my kids are the one thing that can put a smile on my face no matter how funky I feel.
i love to hear her in the background when she says 'jones' & 'folk'..she's definitely a chip off the old block lol
Beautiful post T. My babygirl is 16 and she STILL wants pink cupcakes!
Big ups to you for being such a great dad.

It is crazy that you wrote this. I went to bible class this morning. We have men only meetings every third Saturday. Anyway, the lesson today was how a man should be a father to his children. I was actually going to blog about it. I think that's tight that you are a stand up cat. It is so important that we have strong black models for this generation. I'm not sure if you reading my spot at the time, but check this out, I think you would enjoy it...http://gentlemenstandard.blogspot.com/2008/07/angelic.html.
I'm with sista gp on this one. "ur n trouble"
Aw...That is sooo sweet!
I love to see my husband with our daughter, its so sweet, even though he drives me crazy, getting her out of trouble I put her in.
N.E. way....
Take the advice guys. I know baby mama drama is a biotch, but deal with it, cause in the long run its well worth it.
Your daughter is beautiful, must take after her mom. lol just joking.
Your daughter is soooo precious! I love what you wrote and who knows, maybe someday I'll get to know what a mama's boy is like for myself:)
Priceless...
cute post...
Yeah daddy's girl are something else. I bet if I asked my big grown behind asked my daddy today to go buy me some pink cupcakes today he would say...NO...but instead he would make them at home for me (he so damn cheap...LOL)
Precious. Adorable.
I want the BLUE ones.
And damn it feels good to see other parents up on it! In all it's rawness, parenthood is awesome. And it deserves nothing less than our "A" game.
"...to earn the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friend...to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!" - Emerson
Nothing like fatherhood..
keep that going jones
Wow, I love this post! Love conquors all - especially love for a little girl who loves pink! She's a cutey, and Yes, you are truly blessed. Stay blessed . . . PLL, CordieB.

Great message for men and women. Love your children...regardless of what the other half says or does. It seems a lot easier said than done but so worth the effort.

Oh my goodness your daughter is so beautiful!! I can't wait until I have children!! You are so blessed!!!
Love this blog posting, Torrance, absolutely love it! :) Interestingly enough Skeptical Brotha just wrote one on fathers/sons and you both have me heading back to that incredible urge to FINALLY finish classes for my teaching credential. (Just need those Lotto numbers to come through for that. ;)) There is NOTHING like the feeling you get when a younger one looks to YOU to just help them "be"--to help explain the world around them, to help them understand their feelings, to mimic you, to stretch your boundaries (and your patience ;)). They come to us with such innocence, but with such sheer joy and curiosity about life, and the way they help US see life through THEIR eyes--magical, just magical. (Never mind what they teach us, without even trying! :))
Since I don't have kids of my own (well, my 4-legged, furry boy IS my kid, but...), it's working with children, and spending time with my young nephews, that keeps me in a similar place to the one you so fondly described for all of us. What a lucky young "pink cupcake" gal she is for having a daddy that adores her. You'd think with two dads--"real dad" and "step-dad"--I'd have found that daddy's girl thing, but didn't. I was fortunate, though, to be a "grampa's girl", and even though he's been gone for years, he's still with me in everything I do--especially my smart ass writing. ;)
Thanks for sharing a bit of your life, Torrance. :)
Beautiful!
I love that last photo of you and her. It's so real, so black America, I love it. Thanks for sharing.
I respect you so much for this you have no idea
aww u already know I love this post... your such a good father.
Hey Brother!
This was simply beautiful....they are blessed to have such a loving dad...I pray your love of fatherhood rubs off on those who neglect their duty to raise up their children in the way they should go....I pray when I get married and have children my husband will love our kids just as much as you love yours. That's what's up!
Hey I'm new to your site but i've been reading some of your old post esp the ones on fatherhoodd. I just wanna say I think your blog is amazing and the love you show for your children displays (sadly) something i'm not used to seeing A REAL MAN and a REAL FATHER.
I pray that when i do have kids its with a man who regards fatherhood in the same fashion as you.Anyways i gotta go back to reading your old entries. Keep up the great work =)
Awww...this made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside!
I love reading posts from a gushing dad. Especially when it is obvious that he is feeling a real moment of love for his babies.
I did not have girls. I do now. I just spent the day with them and my little fella. It is still amazing to me that I am now a grandmother. Even more amazing is the transitions that my little boys have gone through because of their daughters and son. They are responsible and caring which makes me feel pretty good as their mother.
I hope and pray that all of our children feel loved and well cared for. This is a crazy world and a whole lot of things are going on and will continue to do so.
But the unconditional love that we give and receive from our children makes this place a lot more enjoyable.
Have a good week T, may you and yours be blessed.
....isn't that just the cutest? In a few years you'll be able to put up a sign on your store: "Braincell - by All-mi-T and daughter" ;)
Our little one is a total daddy's girl too.. I was too.. and my sis in law was too.. I'm starting to see a pattern here.. *lol*
Greetings from the netherlands!
p.s. "naw folk, we don’t get down like that" - how sweet would that sound coming out of a little girl like that! :D
I'm a the only man in my house, and I'm surrounded by 4 beautiful women (including my wife of course). Sometimes they get on my nerves, even down to the 1yr old. But I wouldn't have it any other way. I think I'm a beter person for it.
Black love on every level is so beautiful especially between parent and child. She's too cute, I can't say that enough!
Almost an exact match to her top too! It almost looks like lipstick - make her wait for that stuff... imho.
Toooooooooo cute! There is nothing that makes me smile more than a man and his children in a healthy loving relationship! She is SO CUTE!!
You right the kiddos really do put things in perspective. Thanks.
-OG
Torrance that's some real shit there...daddys far and wide need to take heed. I often wonder how on earth my son's fathers can be okay with missing those cute little moments the boys have...their radiant shine...athletics...academics...and all those wonderful things about them that are the key ingredients to their individual personalities. How could they not want to witness those tiny threads of themselves which were woven into those dapper young men???
It will remain a mystery to me.
I love to hear, and I love to see men with their children. I have two boys and the pride I feel is ridiculous. It's like I'm sexist, because I feel like lioness because of my men.
LOL.. too dayum funny.. talking like her papa lol...
but yeah talking about your kids is nice... the only thing i understand most of the time over here lol...
Family is a great thing to have! Cherish them while they are here...
I wish more fathers were like you! :)
awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww is u getting soft or what?..lol..
this is so true..i cant believe she actually says "naw folk...." haha hilarious..
oh i was watching cnn this morning and i thought i saw u on there but it was this dude from BET...was crazy tho
so beautiful you love her so...and so beautiful that she loves you back so much...that is what it is all about....you are right...and thank you for appreciating the wonder of it all ...
Awww, great post, Torrance. :-) Your little girl is precious. What you posted is the truth. I love it! :-)
I am a daddy girl - nothing beats the feeling - he is an awesome man! I love him!
How beautifuuuul!!
Great Post T! She is sooooo beautiful!
My oldest daughter is such a baba's girl & I love it. My baby girl wants nothing to do with me & momma gets all the love.
That damn breast feeding!!!
Here's to be a good father!!!
Bygbay
I just started reading your blog and your post made me all sniffly. Every little girl should have a daddy.
Your little princess will go out into the world and demand the love and respect from men that she got from her daddy. That is a forever gift and a wonderful thing.
my favorite posts from you are the ones where you share about your kids.
what is Famous wearing?
Very sweet. It is always nice to see a good dad being dad. All they want is your love, that's it. Your baby girl is a little beauty and she obviously looks up to you and can potentially take over the business one day. That's the way it should be. I wish you a lovely day.
I'm so glad I got a chance to stop by today!! How ya doing? Missed ya!!
And I am a bonafide Daddy's girl. Well at least I used to be. I hate that we kind of drifted apart as I grew up. It's both of our faults tho. Plus he's busy raising my kid brother, so I mean...But I love my daddy, and I know that he'll do whatever to make sure I'm happy. He's the one always making sacrifices and bending over backwards for his kids. And that's how it should be.
Your little girl is adorable!! Great post!
she is too cute.....
More men need to be/feel that way.
She is beyond adorable!! Its seeing incredible black fathers like you that let me know that not all hope is lost :)
I dont have any girls but this story is making me want some (or at least one).
So proud of you for being a FATHER to your children, despite the other half of their creation.
You're even more beautiful!
Much Luv & Respect
Awe too cute...that was so special, just like the love you have for lil mama!
Hey Brother!
Point well taken!!
lol I'm lucky, at 16 my babygirl has never had a cavity.
she is gorgeous.
im in no position to have kids now, but they are such amazing little creatures. i have two baby brothers and they appreciate the smallest things in life and it makes me happy.
paix, ASiA Deeeee
a baby gurl jones, now that's what i'm talking bout.
My daughters prefer ice cream sandwiches. Some days I want to be pissed and left alone. It's funny how they never accept that.
Thanks for all the comments.

thank u sister
You've got some great kids, huh? Little girl is so cute. You know what? Nothing really matters except the kids. Really. When I get all caught up in my own worries I get all stressed out, but one great cure is to just take 10 minutes and curl up with a kid and read a silly book together. Then the nasty old world doesn't look quite so bad anymore.
nothing more beautiful than a black father teaching & embracing his children with unconditional love!!!
"I mean love your kids, I don’t care if they momma crazy or you crazy."
this made me laugh so hard! lol
I dont understand how peple can' nurture their kids, its like...i dont even know, I'm onna have to think on it, but really though, kids are amazing.
Your daughter is SO BEAUTIFUL! cutest little girl!
omg your daughter is so beautiful! all the things you were saying about her remind me of how I used to be w/my father growing up. To this day my mom brings up this story from when I was like 4 lol...she asked me if her and my father were to ever seperate who I would go w/and I said daddy lol. of course as I got older I decided if that were to occur that I'd go with whichever one wasn't the cause of the seperation, or I'd stay w/a relative so I didn't have to choose lol, but I was DEF a daddy's girl. this post has inspired my blog for today...thank u...im about to write it as soon as i get some tea!
I'm a daddy's girl. I love that man in ways that become new to me everyday. I see his flaws and it makes ME want to be a better woman. I wish every little girl was blessed with a daddy like mine.
This is from Mrs. Snoop, over on politicalpartypoop.com - you need to ask him to send you a picture of his oldest daughter and her 1 year old girl. Daughter and grand-daughter are GORGEOUS and need a daddy in the house. Wanna move to KC?? LOL.
