The Risk of Injury

Published: Jul 1, 2014 · Modified: Feb 11, 2020 by Shad · Post may contain affiliate links

In order to relive my glorious years of early fatherhood,
I've decided to carry Quinn (9) to bed on occasion.

I'm closing in on the day when the risk of injury to one or both of us
will outweigh the emotional benefits of this endeavor.

The Risk of Injury: Oh the joy of carrying your little one off to bed when they are ... 9. Love this story. Ah, fathers letting go of their daughters.
