Ashley Cain tenderly kissed his seriously-ill daughter Azaylia's head as the tot returned home from hospital.
The sweet moment was captured by Ashley's partner and baby Azaylia's mum, Safiyya on her Instagram stories.
Safiyya clutched a sleepy Azaylia to her chest and explained her little daughter had just woken up.
Azaylia looked beautiful in a little pink leopard print babygro and cute white socks on her feet.
Clutching a rattle in her hand, she stared into the camera as her mum wished her good morning.
Ashley softly came over and with a caring hand on Safiyya's shoulder went and planted several sweet kisses on his little daughter's head.
Azaylia looked delighted by her father's loving kisses.
Later Safiyya cuddled up to her daughter and Ashley as they swayed to Eternal's song I Wanna Be The Only One.
Ashley cuddled in his baby girl and kept his lips planted on her head as Safiyya couldn't resist smelling her daughter's hair and kissing her too.
Azaylia also enjoyed cuddles with one of aunts, who Safiyya described as a family nurse and thanked her for being amazing.
Azaylia also was treated to three new teddy bears in red and yellow called Love, Hope and Happy.
She looked thrilled by her new plush companions as her family had the bears dancing and singing a song from the jungle book to her.
Sat on a den her mum had made for her on the floor, Azaylia was enraptured by the furry toys who were sat by her, and watching her nursery programmes on television.
Her little legs showed the bruises caused by the myeloid leukaemia she is battling.
The pair have been documenting much of that time on their social media accounts, with Safiyya sharing a sweet video in the early hours of this morning that showed Ashley asleep beside his snoozing daughter.
She captioned the clip: "Goodnight, thank you for today, and blessing me with my beautiful family."
Yesterday, the brave mum revealed that "struggling" Azaylia is now on oxygen at home after she was rushed to hospital again – where she had another blood transfusion.
She has also lost movement in half of her face due to tumours on her brain.
Last month, Ashley and Safiyya raised over £1 million to take Azaylia to Singapore in a last-ditch attempt to save her life – but were left devastated when they were told the specialists in the country could not help.
Doctors in the UK then discovered tumours throughout Azaylia's body, including her brain and spleen, and delivered the heartbreaking news that they'd run out of options to treat her.
The brave parents have now taken their little girl home from hospital and shared their determination to make her final days as happy as possible.
Azaylia was born in August and diagnosed with the illness at just eight weeks old, with Ashley and Safiyya marking her "eight month birthday" at the weekend.
She has won the hearts of the nation throughout her ordeal, and has been nominated for a Pride of Britain award, and people across the UK also took to their doorsteps to "Clap for Azaylia" earlier this week.
