A daughter needs her daddy,
to love her, and to teach her how to be loved.
A daughter needs her daddy, to be there,
to catch her when she stumbles.
A daughter needs her daddy,
to teach her that girls deserve to be respected.
A daughter needs her daddy,
to stand beside her, strong and silent, throughout life’s struggles.
A daughter needs her daddy,
to be there at her wedding.
A daughter needs her daddy,
to be there at the birth of her children.
A daughter needs her daddy,
Not when it’s convenient for him.
Not when it will look good to those around him.
Not when she plays by his rules.
Not when he’s bored.
Not when he approves.
A daughter needs her daddy without conditions.

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.
