Five years since you* made me a dad.
3 weeks early but still 5 days of drawn out labour. The first indication of you managing to be gung ho whilst also taking your sweet, sweet time.
What I didn’t know then was the courage, the silly and the kindness that you’d fill each day with.
That your favourite colour would be rainbow, and that you would ‘love everything’.
How you would grow too quick, and help me grow. Just to keep up.
And I never truly understood the privilege that it is to be a parent. But I absolutely know now.
Thank you, Margot 💙

*acutely aware that @colettecooper87 obviously made me a dad and whilst she will get her dues when it’s her turn, it’s no coinkydink that every good bit of Margot is a reflection of her.
Not quite sure where four years, eight months and 6 days have gone, but I know they’ve been full.
Off to school tomorrow and totally pumped for it.
More fool the first kid to touch her book bag.
