She’ll probably want to crawl in bed with you after a nightmare.
This is a good thing!!
I'm gonna teach you some basic shit so you don't fuck up your child! ... Keep in mind that some of these things I "came up with", some I learned by trial and error and some I got from internet research...

Take her swimsuit shopping...
Don’t be afraid to veto some of her choices, but resist the urge to buy her full-body beach pajamas.

It is in their nature to make music.
It’s up to you to introduce them to the right instruments until they can choose on their own.

Lullaby...
Always and I do mean ALWAYS, sing a lullaby to your kid... That is a special bond that will never be broken,
no matter how old they get not only they will remember these songs but it can even comfort them in times of distress...
Just a few suggestions in case you don't know what to sing....

Dance with her.
Start when she’s a little girl or even when she’s a baby.
Don’t wait ‘til her wedding day.

NEVER miss her birthday.
In ten years she won’t remember the present you gave her, she will remember if you weren’t there.

Take her camping.
Immerse her in the great outdoors. Watch her eyes fill with wonder the first time she sees the beauty of wide open spaces.
PS:
Leave the iPad at home. Bring a camera!

Learn when to say no.
She may be fucking pissed today, but someday you’ll both be glad you stuck to your guns.

It’s never too early to start teaching her about money.
She will still probably suck you dry as a teenager… and on her wedding day.

Save the day.
She’ll grow up looking for a hero, It might as well be you.
She’ll need you to come through for her over and over again throughout her life. Rise to the occasion. Red cape and blue tights optional.
Gun blazing would be preferable.

Tell her she’s beautiful. Say it over and over again. Someday an animated movie or “beauty” magazine will try to convince her otherwise.

Always be there. Quality time doesn’t happen without quantity time. Hang
out together for no other reason than just to be in each other’s
presence. Be genuinely interested in the things that interest her. She
needs her dad to be involved in her life at every stage. Don’t just sit
idly by while she add years to her… add life to her years.
