Very nice post, love the idea of putting the baby to sleep with Bob Ross in the background :)
Some of the people I met who were great at parenting were a little unlucky in that department themselves. Maybe that becomes a deep incentive to give your all as a parent once you become one. One thing for sure is you don't need to be absolutely perfect to create great, strong bonds with your child and raise them as happy, healthy individuals, they just need to know you are and always will be there for them. You seem very thoughtful and loving towards her and you guys seem like a nice, happy family. Hope you both give yourselves credit for that :)
