In the poignant video, Ashley says to his daughter: “Excuse moi,” before showing Azaylia lying down on a baby mat.
As he laughed with his daughter, he continued to say: “Are you talking to me? Excuse moi.”
Azaylia can be seen wearing a Christmas jumper in the video shared by the doting dad.
He continues to say she’s the “best Christmas present ever,” while smiling into the camera after hearing her reaction to him as he filmed.
Sharing the moment with his social media followers, Ashley wrote: “Throwback to the best Christmas present ever – our first conversation.
“Giving up my Christmas’s going forward is ok, because the memories from this one will last me a lifetime.
“𝑨𝒛𝒂𝒚𝒍𝒊𝒂 – Your life will continue to change the world my angel 👼🏼.”
