Lori, What a great idea. I wonder what other things we can do to encourage our fathers to invest in their daughters like that. Ryan,

Lori,
What a great idea. I wonder what other things we can do to encourage our fathers to invest in their daughters like that.

BEAUTIFUL

An only child in a lonely town
With her head held high and her hair flowing down
Her mama told her babe you know
you’re beautiful inside and out

first day of school and the kids all laughed
as a kick me sign was placed on her back
fighting the tears she walked away
knowing just exactly what mama would say

I don’t need you I don’t need you
I don’t need you cause I know
I’m beautiful, I might be slow
But I’m beautiful
My mama told me so

Thirteen years and not much has changed
You’d think by now they’d stop calling her names
But she still fights the tears and walks on by
Cause she remembers her mamas words
Way back when they needed to be heard
They give her strength to say to herself

I don’t need you I don’t need you
I don’t need you cause I know
I’m beautiful, I might be slow
But I’m beautiful
My mama told me so

Time goes on and so does mamas strength
She says babe, come here I’ve got something to say
You’re mama’s not as young as she used to be
And sometimes I don’t know what Daddy sees in me

And her baby said
You’re beautiful you’re beautiful
You’re beautiful I know
You’re beautiful, you might be slow
But you’re beautiful
You’re baby told you so

Dad and daughter(s) dress up, he buys her a coursage, they come for a nice dinner and it's magic! We had a princess theme this year with door prizes, tiaras, crowd breakers and a special devotional from one of the dads. The girls talked about it for weeks and can't wait for the next one. We even had a photographer to capture the "couples". The dads thanked me over and over again and I know it helped them remember your exact point, Gina!

I'm a girl who didn't get that, and let me tell you, I probably would've avoided alot of heartache had that bar been set high to start with. Carrie So true.
