Former All Blacks captain and proud dad Richie McCaw is all smiles as he holds his daughter in a just-released photograph.
The 38-year-old is pictured with former Black Sticks star wife Gemma sitting together in front of a Christmas tree.
In one of his hands, the All Black legend cups his wee girl, Charlotte Rose, as she looks up towards mum.
The photo was shared on Gemma McCaw's Instagram page tonight with a message to fans.
"Happy new year from our family to yours - 2018 was a very special year for us with the safe arrival of our beautiful baby girl.
