She continued, "Papa I’m so lucky to have you and so is Lou. Thank you for being the silliest, most loving, coolest Daddio a girl could ask for. Best Girl Dad in the game…."

Rumer welcomed Louetta, nicknamed Lou, last month, with her partner Derek Richard, whom she also wrote about in the post.
"Happy 1st Father’s Day. Thank you for building a beautiful garden for Lou to play in and eat from," she wrote.
"I’m so grateful our girl has a papa that loves her so much and someone so goofy and weird so she knows that’s ok for her to be too," she added. "Thank you for the greatest girl I could imagine in my wildest dreams. We love you."

Before her daughter’s birth, Rumer told People, "[My parents] are so excited. My sisters are so excited, and it's so fun to be bringing in the first grandkid in our family, especially because we're such a huge group at this point."
Rumer’s daughter is the first grandchild for Willis and his ex-wife Demi Moore. They also share daughters Scout Willis and Tallulah Willis. Bruce is also dad to two daughters, Mabel and Evelyn, with his current wife, Emma Heming Willis.
