The sweet baby girl, Antonella, is truly Daddy’s girl.

Brazilian, Flávio Dantas, spent time talking to his unborn baby every day. “He always told her that he loved her so much,” mother Tarsila Batista said.

Tarsila explained that Flávio would greet Antonella every morning after getting home from work. He would stroke Tarsila’s belly and tell the baby he would always be there for her. So, when the day finally came, and Antonella was born, she gave a beautiful reaction upon hearing her daddy’s voice.

When the delivery happened and the doctors handed Antonella to her parents, Flávio repeated the words he had told her throughout the pregnancy, and she smiled instantly.

“They put her on top of me sleeping, and as soon as he spoke to her, Antonella opened her eyes and smiled,” Tarsila Batista recalled.

That cute moment was caught on camera, and the picture has gone viral ever since. Just see the happiness on the parents’ faces as their baby smiles.

“I thought I knew what a feeling of true love was until I looked at that most sincere smile in the world… it was [then] that I could be sure what love is,” proud papa Flávio said.

The fact that Tarsila gave birth to Antonella on August 11, which is celebrated as Father’s Day in Brazil, makes it even more special. Flávio says his love for Antonella is too big to fit inside his chest, and the mother described her as “a gift sent by my Lord.”

This story is warming hearts everywhere as it tells of the amazing love that exists between parents and children.
