:? Dh received a bday card from sd8 that she wrote inside of it, "you're the best thing that ever happened to me". Dh was really touched and saved it in his drawer. I think it is creepy and something that a spouse writes in a card,not a daughter to her father. It weirded me out a bit. Ewwwww.

I could see how it would but little girls get like that with their fathers. My SD5 says her dad is her boyfriend and for fathers day made him two cards with similar sayings. She has also told me "stay away from my daddy" and always lays in between us. Just smile a nod.

She's eight. If she were old enough to have fallen in love, then I would think it's over the top but at eight, he might be the best thing that's happened to her. Unless she's ever gotten a pony.

Even so, I can't imagine writing that when I was eight, so maybe she had some help?

I don't think it's that weird. Little girls are over the top like that. If it were your bio and your dh was her dad, you would probably think it's sweet. Does she do a lot of other mini wife type stuff that bothers you? If so, I could see how this kind of thing might bother you.

Yes,she does the mini wife stuff too,so this card stuff seems a little over the top to me. She tries to walk in between dh and me and tries to dominate him when we are all together. Luckily Dh has started to shut that crap down.

I think it's still better than SDs showering DH with gifts for his birthday and then pulling him into the other room by himself and cornering him ON HIS BIRTHDAY about buying them iPhone 6 s. they left almost immediately after he told them he doesn't have the money.... All on HIS birthday...

I tell my kids that they are the baby loves of my life and DH is the grown up love of my life. Bth are true, but carefully worded.

My 13 yo son wrote a card to my mom and dad that said something similar. I don't think it's creepy; In my case I think my son really loves his family.
