As his daughter sweetly continued to repeat the phrases, her dad jokingly teased: “Now really, the most important thing is where is your mother… OK, daddy’s the best.”
As his daughter than started screaming “mother!”, Dwayne replied: “Well, no, not mother… you’re ruining the thing! Just Daddy’s the best.”
