Bruce Willis already has a sixth sense when it comes to being a grandparent.
His daughter Rumer Willis celebrated Father's Day 2023 by sharing a look at the actor bonding with his first grandchild, Louetta Isley Thomas Willis, who Rumer welcomed with boyfriend Derek Richard Thomas in April.
"Seeing my father hold my daughter today was something I will treasure for the rest of my life," she wrote on Instagram. "His sweetness and love for her was so pure and beautiful."
Rumer, 34, also posed for a photo with both Louetta and Bruce, 68, which captured three generations of the Willis family.
"Papa I'm so lucky to have you and so is Lou," she continued in her tribute. "Thank you for being the silliest, most loving, coolest Daddio a girl could ask for. Best Girl Dad in the game."
Rumer—whose mom is Demi Moore—also honored Derek on his first Father's Day as well.
"Thank you for building a beautiful garden for Lou to play in and eat from," she told the singer/songwriter. "Thank you for filling the house with music for her to hear. Thank you for all the late night diaper changes and silly faces. 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."
The actress added, "Thank you for the greatest girl I could imagine in my wildest dreams. We love you."
Those weren't the only loving words exchanged amongst the family on the holiday. Bruce's wife Emma Heming also made sure he felt the love this year.
"Father's Day is a time I get to reflect on my deep appreciation and respect I have for Bruce as I watch him father our little ones," wrote Emma, who shares Mabel, 11, and Evelyn, 9, with the Die Hard star. "Where it might not be 'conventional,' what he's teaching them will span generations. Unconditional love, kindness, strength, compassion, patience, generosity, resilience."
She said that Bruce—who was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia earlier this year—will "forever be the gift that keeps giving within our family."

And when it comes to fatherhood, Reynolds is strapped in for the adventure.
"I love being a girl dad," he told Access Hollywood in 2020. "I have three daughters, which I never in a million years would've imagined. I come from all boys. I have three older brothers—I'm the youngest of four boys, so for me to have three daughters has just been such a ride, and I love every second of it."
The Martian actor is dad to four daughters with wife Luciana Barroso—Alexia, 24, Luciana's daughter from a previous relationship; Isabella, 16; Gia, 14, and Stella, 12.
"In general, I think women should be in charge of everything," Bruce told People in 2020. "They should be running the country. Halle Berry should be president. Women are just much smarter than men. Even if I had five boys, I'd still feel the same way."
Of course, his quintet is all female, the Die Hard star sharing Rumer, 34, Scout, 31, and Tallulah, 29, with ex Demi Moore and Mabel, 11, and Evelyn, 9, with wife Emma Heming.

For Johnson, being a girl dad has meant unlocking a softer side to him.
"You can be wired, as a lot of fathers are, to fix things," he told People in 2021. "Just having an expanded capacity to listen and be more tender and gentle really gave me that ability to solve whatever the issue is, but with them compared to for them."
The Django Unchained actor shares daughter Corinne, 29, with ex Connie Kline. He's also dad to daughter Anelise, 14, with ex Kristin Grannis.
