Daddy's girl

This is Brian breaking into the blog.
Ever since Ellie was born, I can't get enough of curling up with her on the couch. She pulls her legs up tight so that she's in a little ball and buries her face in my chest. It might be the single coolest thing I've ever experienced.
One thing's for sure, though. Ellie is a daddy's girl. Grandmas, neighbors, friends and even Dorothy sometimes have difficulty quieting Ellie when she's fussy. And while I'm not always successful, I seem to have a touch that calms has when little else will.
That's not to disparage anyone else's ability with Ellie. But I think there's something about a dad that feels safe and secure. It's good to know that she feels that way with me.
