Marrying Daddy (story not poem)

My six year old daughter yesterday came up to me with a bunch of danilions in her hand. she ran up to me yelling "DADDY DADDY I WANT TO ASK YOU SOMETHING!" I held out my hands and she jumped into them. Now My six year old can act VERY serious when she wants to. its like she goes from six to twenty-six in a blink. Now she pulls a serious moment and looks up at me. her Big Green and I do mean green eyes are staring at me all serious. What she said next brought tears to my eye. " I love you daddy. Will you marry me?" She asks me. I'm not an emotional guy but THAT brought me to tears. Me. A guy with a very bad past and present being asked by his six year old, if she could marry him. her innocence it kills me. "I dont know baby you're going to have to ask mommy on that one, I'm kinda already married to her." I said putting her down. She put her little hands on her hips and stomped her foot, Such little six year old move. "Well Not anymore she isnt! I"M marrying you now!" She says and stomps to my room where my wife was. I try hard not to laugh but I'm sorry that was just adorable. I hear from my bedroom her little voice slightly yelling at my wife (her mom). "Mommy you are not married to dad anymore! I AM MARRYING HIM!!!" I stand in my door way and see sophia standing infront of her mother who is trying hard not to laugh. "Oh really is that so? Well then I would gladly love to be the one to marry the two of you." She says scooping up sophia who tries hard to wiggle out of her arms. a giant smile on her face. she starts chanting 'I'm marry daddy, I'm marrying daddy!" My wife kaitlyn goes to our daughters room and picks out last years easter dress which is white and pink. She helps put it on her and then puts some pretty pink lipstick on her. THEN they fibnd the dandylions that she drop and well We all go into the living room. I had put on my best dress shirt jsut for the occaison. my wife stands in front of us and trying hard not to laugh "marries" us. "Sophia, do you marry him?" "YES I DO!!!!" she says giggling. "Ok then you are married to him. you may now hug him." And my little daughter turns to me and hugs me so hard. " I Love you daddy I'm so happy we married now!" " I love you too Sophia, always and forever." Goddess Damn my daughter makes my cold heart melt.
