Last night the family went to Target and left me here to sit with my 1 month old, Ella Jane. I took the opportunity to throw some Otis Redding onto the record player and dance with my little girl. It relaxes her and I enjoy it.
I cannot describe the swells of joy that come from being able to hold my little girl and dance her to sleep. As I was caught up in the moment, I did not think that anything could compare to the intensity of the elation this moment was bringing me.
That is until I realized that one day, a day much sooner than I would like, I would not be able to have these moments with my little girl. That is when I knew I had been wrong about nothing being able to match the intensity of the happiness of dancing with her. The pain of knowing that, one day, I have to let her go.
Whether she decides that she is too old to dance with her old Dad or that I get to dance with her one last time before turning her over to the care of another man, I will have to let her go. The pain of that thought has, at the least, matched the intensity of the happiness of dancing with her.
I was then filled with the need to get as much out of this moment as I possibly could. So I held this little girl a bit tighter as we danced to "These Arms of Mine" and I began to cry like a baby knowing that this relationship is a journey that ends with me letting go.
Now, I am going to wipe these new tears away before the wife sees the red eyes and accuses me of being high again.
