Gospel Award winning singer, Kirk Franklin gave out his daughter, Carrington's hand in marriage few days ago as she got married to a Nigerian, Maxx-Nakwaasah, at a lovely ceremony held in Fort Worth, Texas, USA.
The wedding was officiated by Kirk Franklin, who is also an ordained Pastor as he joined the couple in holy matrimony.
Expressing his feelings on instagram, the loving father shared a touching note with a throwback picture of the two of them.
His words read - “She's getting married today... and I've spent an hour and a half rewriting this.
“Crying, smiling, and preparing to let go… of my little girl. I will walk her down the aisle, then I will officiate the wedding.
“Why? Because I'm selfish, for my little girl. And she asked her daddy to! How could I say no?! I pray I don't make a fool of myself and cry more than I speak.
“God, it's so hard to release her. If I could I would keep her a little girl, FOREVER. Selfish, I know. But at this moment, I want to be.
"I want to go go- kart riding, jet skiing, middle school basketball games, movies over and over again....just me and her. This is hard as Hell. She has no idea, cause she's not a daddy. I am. A proud one. I hope I was a good one.
"I'm sorry for that one spanking you got that killed me more than it did you! I'm proud and love your future husband. Jealous, but proud.
"He comes first now. I'll have to get used to that, cause I'm selfish, for you.
"Only pictures get stuck in time, not people. They grow, and need to be let go.... I'm going to try really hard,...but please, when I see you with your new life, let me hold you every now and then, and pretend....that I'm never letting go.
"Forever daddy's girl.
- Signed, A girl's daddy"
Very touching indeed. We wish the new couple a beautiful married life.
