Adorable: David Beckham posted another adorable snapshot of himself with daughter Harper on Friday evening - as she celebrated her fourth birthday
Clearly proud of his youngest child, who has clearly spent all day being suitably spoiled, he captioned the shot with: 'Sweet dreams my little 4 year old.
'I think Harper Seven has had a fun packed day with her little friends... Good night little lady'.
Unsurprisingly, the image was liked 198,000 times by early on Friday evening, proving that his fans love his softer side.
The latest picture comes just hours after smitten David shared his favourite photo of her from her first year.
Tribute: Earlier on Friday, David wished his daughter Harper Beckham a happy fourth birthday morning with a gorgeous throwback snap
The father of four couldn't help but gush about his 'amazing' little girl when he took to Instagram to with a touching tribute on her big day.
He said: 'Possibly my favourite picture of Harper of all time... 4 beautiful years with the most amazing little girl... Happy birthday big girl... ❤️'
The black and white photo captures a four-years-younger David with his first daughter laid out on his chest.
David and wife Victoria have three boys, Brooklyn, 16, Romeo and Cruz but waited for their little girl who came along 10 years into their happy marriage.
Apple of his eye: Harper has long been considered the apple of daddy David's eye
The fashion-forward four-year-old has followed in the footsteps of both of her doting parents in recent years.
She's demonstrated a keen flair for style as her mother continues to dress her impeccably for the front row and for days out.
But also, much to her mother's distaste, Harper has indicated that she's got a keen interest in football because Victoria says she has her own sporting strip.
She recently joked: 'Harper loves football. It’s like a dagger going into my heart.

Matching mummy: At four, Harper is already pretty sophisticated at picking out outfits
'She’s got little shoes and a little football shirt and she runs around in the garden with her brothers. So as much as she is girly, she’s a tomboy as well.'
Harper was recently gifted a full kit emblazoned with 'Harper Seven' by the women's England football team.
David gushed with pride, saying: 'What an amazing gift from the @england women's team for Harper. Good luck to the team tomorrow in their first game against France.. #lionesses #pride #england.'
Despite having a special soft spot for his only girl, daddy David manages to share out time with his children pretty well and was seen taking middle son Romeo to the tennis this week.
Sharing a heart melting snap of the pair side by side, he said: 'Wimbledon day with my little man...'
