Jake, for his part, assured Ellie to always be by her side “through it all.”

“I’ll probably never stop wishing I could keep my baby girl as my baby girl forever, but truth is, I also can’t wait to witness you grow — wiser, kinder, bolder, and even more beautiful,” he said.

Giving life advice to his daughter, he continued. “The next couple of years could be the best and most exciting of your life, but you’ll also discover new pains and the tough realities of this world. So if the unknown gets a little too scary, keep faith and keep close. And endlessly bask whenever the sun shines.”
