Gabbi and Daddy at the recital

 I had planned to do a whole post showcasing all the people who were waiting outside the auditorium to shower my babies with gifts and love.  But, instead, I decided to just wait on that and take this special post to show only ONE person and the love that HE showed and was shown to him after this special day. 
 As you may know, Gabs has always been pretty much a mama's girl.  She would choose me over most any kid or playmate.  I'm her best pal.
 Because of that, ol Dad sometimes has to play second fiddle to ol Mom!  But, on THIS day... it was all about Daddy!
 From the time she came out of that Civic Center, Gabbi made a bee line to her Daddy and showered him with love before giving anyone else the least bit of attention!
 And dontcha know he loved it?! 
 After all, it was her first recital.  And this was his baby girl. 
 I just sat there in awe with my camera, clicking away and was so touched by the sweetness of it all.
 She walked past JinJin, Mama, KK, Kimie, Nana,  and Veronicia... some of her most favorite people in the whole wide world!
All to make it to her Daddy.  And for that moment, there was noone else in the world!
