A video of an unsuspecting father dancing with his little girl is making the Internet let out a collective “awwwwww”.

Titled Father and Daughter Kitchen Dance, the video shows a man preparing something at a stove, with his daughter wrapped tightly around his waist and shoulder in a bear hug. The song “Thinking Out Loud” by Ed Sheeran can be heard as the father sways gently and whistles to the music. The dad tries to take out some bread from a bag with one hand, using the other to hold his daughter as she smiles widely. When he dips her and plants a kiss on her cheek, she teases, “Don’t drop me!”

When the dad finally sees that the precious moment is being filmed, he grabs his daughter’s hand and dips her far back, while a dog is seen running up. The woman filming lets out a little laugh as the girl giggles wildly and climbs off from her dad. The clip ends with her playfully giving her dad a soft smack on the head.

“That Is The Sweetest Thing Ever,” exclaimed commenter Carmen Meza.

“That is awesome,” chimed in Richie Rich. “He is teaching her an INVALUABLE lesson and it’s awesome. What a great dad! ”
