Reach for the box of tissue and read on. The Game, a.k.a. Jayceon Taylor, shared a sweet message about his daughter, Cali Dream, after her cheer competition earlier this week.

“I want to share a little story with all of you about a Father’s love for his little girl,” Taylor began. “I had 2 sons that I love(d) with everything God had given me. But they were boys, so my personal life, my decision making, the process of being a dad didn’t alter or change much of anything because I would just say, ‘They’re boys.. their tough, my little soldiers, they’ll be okay’… and they were so I continued my life in the streets, my career, gang banging, doing dumb sh*t without thinking all the while being their father, loving and taking care of them the best I knew how.”

Everything changed when Cali Dream was born. “I watched the birth of my baby girl,” Game told his Instagram fans. “When I tell you I tried to hold back every tear in a room full of nurses, a doctor, and family… I really did but the joy, excitement, anxiousness, and anticipation of what was to come overpowered me, and they burst from my eyes running down my cheek like a natural spring and at that point, ‘A MAN’ was made!”

The rapper realized the importance of him being a great man and even better father. He told his fans that Cali “has been nothing but pure joy.” Game further gushed about his 7-year-old saying, “I’m so happy that God gave me this baby because she is truly the most amazing little gift I could ever recieve. She loves me and I love her….. it is a love that will last an eternity and it will never change because we are ‘ONE.'”

Cali Dream is the Game’s youngest child. Jayceon Taylor also has two sons named King and Harlem.
