My seven year plan for my daughter started two years before she was born. First, I planned to be the ever-present father for my daughter. Then, I planned to raise a happy, healthy, and self-sufficient daughter without added stress. After, I planned to raise a warrior princess. 

Today, my daughter is four years old. I have been the ever-present father raising a happy, healthy, and self-sufficient warrior princess for the past six years.
