Daddy Daughter Conversation
From the day Rubie was born, I started writing down the funny things she said. Not big moments. Just the everyday talks between a dad and his little girl.Military service took me away sometimes. Life got busy. But I kept the words. Years later, when she was old enough, we sat down and read them together. She said it felt like a book. So I turned it into one.Daddy Daughter Conversation is a father’s record of those talks — the laughs, the questions, the small lessons, and the bond that grew between us. It’s plain. It’s real. And it doesn’t last forever.If you’re a parent, or you remember being a kid who talked to your dad, this one’s for you.
