Being a Dad

Being A Dad

She's special - yes, a real little diva

But  I could never leave her

In Aldi, Sainsbury's or Wilkos

Cos wherever I go, She goes

Yes she's a little shining gem

But then again

I don't like the hits and the spits and the screams

And the tantrums for ice creams

And the "Not the leggins, the jeans"

And the floor covered in beans

And the teddies left in Leeds

And the reams and reams and reams of toilet roll when she's pulled it off the holder.

I know she'll get older and I'll miss these things - like the way she sings and the happiness she brings.

If the phone ever rings when she's in her teens...

...I'll be there - That's what "Daddy" means
