Today, my little girl spoke her first word. It was ''Daddy." Daddy left before she was born and she has never met him before. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my daughter spoke her first words. Her dad had been practicing with her for weeks in secret. She crawled to me and said, "I poop." FML
Today, we've been dating for over three months, but I went over my girlfriend's house for the first time. As we walked through the door, I was greeted by a little girl whose first words to me were, "Are you my daddy?" FML
Today, as I was taking my three year-old daughter home from daycare, she asked where her daddy was. I tried to tell her that I was her father, but she answered, "No, not you! My other daddy!" I've got some talking to do tonight. FML
Today, my 6-month-old daughter decided she'd scream every time I'd answer her cries instead of her daddy. He just left for a 12-hour shift at work. Only 11 more hours to go. FML
Today, a little girl at work was coloring a picture that said "Best Dad" on it. Wanting to be nice I asked her if she was making it for her dad for father's day. She looked at me with a sad face and said, "I don't have a dad..." FML
Today, it was my daughter's birthday. I didn't know I had a daughter. FML
Today, I have been teaching my 5 year-old step-daughter how to read and write. She came bounding up to me with a piece of paper and said, "look what I did". It was a letter that said "My dad misses my real mommy, not you". FML
Today, my four-year-old daughter called me by her mom's new boyfriend's name. Three different times. FML
Today, my eldest daughter announced she was getting divorced. She never even told me she was married. FML
Today, my two year old daughter did not want to leave the toy store, when I picked her up she started screaming at the top of her lungs, "YOU'RE NOT MY DADDY!". FML

Most children will say Da-Da first. It isn't necessarily associated with Daddy. Sorry about the sperm donor, though.

You people don't know anything about daddy. For all you know, mommy was a bitch and now won't let daddy see his daughter. Not everything is the man's fault.

41 - never claimed I do. I said "maybe" because I don't know. I'm also not calling mommy names thinking I do.

I agree with #1, da-da is easier for the baby to say then mama. She'll get to mama when she realizes that's where the food comes from... lol Sorry about the "sperm donor", my father was one of those too.

Well, daddy did walk out. Most likely that means he didn't care enough to see his child anyways.

Don't worry, she doesn't know what she's saying. She'll start saying "mommy" before you know it.

This is true. It's so tempting for parents to imagine every sound is a word or every gas bubble is a smile. The "da" sound is the easiest to make and it's not considered a word unless she makes a concrete link between the sound and the object. For you to be taking this so personally, OP, makes me wonder if you have a touch of post-partum depression. It's very easy to be overwhelmed by a new baby especially if you feel you have no support.

she is prob just saying nonsense

I guess I can only assume that her Dad is currently deployed in the Royal Netherlands Army, and has yet to have the pleasure of meeting his little girl. Good job OP for teaching you're child the word "daddy". It's important for her to realize how much of a hero he really is.
FYLDeep 26
your*. I'm losing it I think.

There are no heroes in the army, only gun frisky morons.

Well here is the hard part to consider about the FML. We don't know whether the Dad is deployed, or if he just left the Mother of the baby because he didn't want to become more "serious". He might not have wanted a child so he left.

I've got a little bit of news for you us gun frisky morons went out, and we fought and we died so little dumb ***** such as yourself can have freedoms, you know freedoms like... I don't know, sitting, waiting for an FML post so you can leave a comment and let the world know exactly how retarded you are. thank you and go die in a hole ya jack wagon

id have to agree. even if you don't think they are as good as usmc or airforce i dosent't mean that you can clown on them. they go through months and years of training and risk their lives daily. if you think they're just gun frisky, i dare you to join. HAVE SOME PRIDE MAN!!!!!!!

while i agree not everyone in teh military is a gun toting freak, i have to ask, exactly what freedoms would i not have now, if the current wars being fought were not being fought?
wade042 0
i realize you are not completely ignorant about the military, but your one of the idiots that dont understand what is going on. the current war is a response to the 9-11 so as too keep our country safe from that again. he was refering to previous wars where if the military had not fought, life would be so different. people hardly ever join cause they just want to kill someone. almost all do it for a career, just to serve the country, or are just afraid and want to do something with their life. hardly any are trigger happy morons
