My firstborn and a few friends I want to thank by immortalizing them on the steemit chain!
I have been sitting here in front of the laptop, an old thing that I have had with me for a few years...what am I saying...it's been more than eight years since I have had this piece of technology but it has served me well...while listening to music and mulling over the fact of what to write. I know what I want to write about but how to go about it seems to elude me a bit. I will give it a try nonetheless. I would like to introduce you to my lovely daughter, Rhian Ameerah...as of writing this she is only 19 days old and the day she was born was one of the most happiest days of my life. I spent around 17 hours in the hospital waiting for her with mixed emotions. Anticipation, anger (mainly because the staff here wouldn't let me into the delivery room to stay with my wife), happiness, impatience...you know all the emotions that you can feel while waiting for your child to be born.
Believe me not when I say there is no feeling in the world that can describe what you go through the moment your child is put into your arms. I didn't know whether I should cry or smile but both happened at the same time. A cute little angel dropped right into my arms (not by stork as the first picture shows) :P but by a wonderful nurse who was attending to my wife. She's a strong child and I am happy to be her father. I have been through a lot in the past thirty years, seen my family fall apart and all my siblings scattered here and there. Even lost my chance to do the things that I wanted to when it came to my education but for my child, I will make sure to not be the same type of father. I will make sure to give her everything that she wants and will work hard in order to provide a better future for her. Of course that is something that all of us wish for our children.
Before she was born I had a few friends who helped me out with a few things and I also wanted to take the time to thank them for what they have done. And what better way to do it than to talk about them here where everyone can see how helpful they have been. On my birthday, these few strangers whom I have never meant pooled some cash together and decided to gift it to me. It was mean't for me but I chose to use it for my kid, so that I could buy her a crib ( even if it was second hand) and she loved it. @sammosk, @ap0calypse, @Bill48105, @buzztiaan, @vbstrdg and @WhitesoxCrypto thank you from both me and Rhian. You guys have not only helped me out getting ready for my kid but there were plenty of times when you gave me good advice on a lot of things and for that I am very grateful. I thank god that he has given me such good friends even though we have never met in person. :)
Don't worry baby won't ever make this face at you guys :P
Congratulations Brother! She is sooo Cute!! :D I hope she will fill your Life with Happiness and joy and keep you always Happy!! In fact i am soo Happy by just seeing her!! <3
Thank you brother ofcourse she has filled my life with loads and loads of happiness :) And I am happy to know you are filled with happiness too by seeing her :)
She's precious @kyrios . I just had my 5th child 5 months ago, it's going to change your life more than you can ever imagine, and you're going to love it!
Every hassle, every trouble, it's all worth it in the end. Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks @sasha.shade. Yeah the only thing I am worried about is they grow up so fast :( she will forget her daddy and then I will be sad :(
@sasha.shade is with me inside labor room during the delivery. He watched me giving birth. He cried when he saw his daughter. He know exactly how it feels to finally see baby outside from womb. I'm sure you are very happy. Congratulations @kyrios I hope to watch baby girl grow. Post it here in steemit. I'd love to see her development ^_^
pls send my hugs and kisses 💋❤
She's so beautiful ❤
Thank you very much. I will sure to be posting on a regular basis about her development. :)
Awww man!
Your post is very heart felt, straight to anyone's emotional side.
You put me inside a time machine and took me back 3 years ago when my daughter was born.
"There is no feeling in the world that can describe what you go through the moment your child is put into your arms"
These words struck me man, I couldn't have said it better myself.
It's not your tears or your smile but your unconditional, overwhelming love is what will define you as a father.
Be her playmate when there's no one to play with her.
Be her best-friend when she feels lonely.
And be her beacon in this vast ocean called life.
Cheers my friend!
Meanwhile,
me and my daughter :-)
Wow thanks man and I am glad to know that the post touched you very much :) Yeah you are right there is nothing but unconditional, overwhelming love that defines a father. Of course I will always be there as a beacon, a friend and a dad for her
that's great man, she's a very lucky girl to have someone like you.
Cheers :-)

STOPYou were always so happy and eager to learn, how could I ever turn away from someone with a drive to do better themselves, polite, and rather intelligent. I liked that you kept trying even when things were hard.
Much love for @kyrios.
Must have been tough sharing such a private moment.
Congrats on your beautiful daughter.
Well I am always willing to learn new things bro even if I am slow at it. Knowledge is power as they say :) And thank you she is. I would share her pictures with the world as much as possible :) And I am thankful that you were understanding and took your time to teach me at a pace I could understand
There was much to learn, haha. I look forward to your next post. :)
Indeed I still have a long way to go master. :) I am thinking about it
Wow, congratulations @kyrios! Rhian Ameerah is very adorable and she's got a wonderful name too. Not to mention an anxious, proud and strong-willed papa. You will surely do good on this new and challenging role as a dad.
I am lucky to have had my hubby with me inside the delivery room on all 3 instances. 😍
Lucky of you :) I mean they didnt even tell me anything I had to go inside the delivery room and ask hows my wife because I have been waiting alone in the waiting area outside wondering what is going on and then I found out that she just gave birth about 10 minutes ago.
Congratulations!!
I can't believe them bastards didn't let you go into the delivery room to stay with your wife ugh!
Baby looking good, you two made a good job! :D
I know right why won't you let the husband, the father to be with his wife at the time of birth. So messed up. Anyways thanks bro :)
Congratulations on having Rhian Ameerah! She's adorable!
Yeah, very few hospitals here allow daddies to be with mommies during delivery. Still such a blessing to have had a safe birthing.
Enjoy your little angel ^_^
Thank you very much :) Yeah which is something I don't quite understand.
Actually we've been so used to it that I never stopped and think about the 'why' of it lol. That's why I find it amazing also when I see tv shows or movies where dads can be with moms during this process.
As you will have seen, there are incessant ideas everywhere. This post turned out a beauty. Very elaborate, heartfelt and warm steming from evident love for your kid.
Thank you very much mate. :) When I was writing it I didn't know how best to put it so the first things that came to my mind from the heart I jotted them down. For both my daughter and the friends that I have.
She's so cute and adorable.. Congratulations.. I hope she will be able to become a nice and smart girl. Say hello to your wife too.
Will do bud. Thanks and I hope she will :) Even though I will spoil her hehehe :P
