She's 6 weeks old and her eyes locked onto mine and she gave this little gummy smile. I know they say it's just gas but I don't care. I felt like I won the lottery. My wife found me on the couch just sitting there with tears running down my face. Being a dad is insane.
Six weeks and she's already got you wrapped around her finger. Those moments are what it's all about. You're going to be a great dad.
Dude, don't let anyone tell you that's just gas. My son is 8 months now and I still remember that exact moment. You're not ugly crying, you're just experiencing peak fatherhood.
Man, that's not gas and you know it. Those early smiles hit different. I cried like a baby when my twins first locked eyes with me too, sleep deprivation makes it even worse in the best way possible.
That's the real deal right there. Our twin girls are 4 now and I still remember those early smiles like they happened yesterday. Soak it in, brother.
Man, that's the stuff right there. That first real smile hits different. My daughter's 8 weeks now and I'm still waiting for that moment. Glad you got to experience it.

People say it's not a real smile at that age but honestly who cares. That moment was real to you and that's what matters. Congratulations on your daughter.
