From the moment Bode and Morgan Miller welcomed their daughter, Emeline Grier, into the world, it was clear that the doting father adored the little girl.
The couple is mourning the death of the 19-month-old, who drowned on Sunday in a pool in Coto de Caza, California, PEOPLE confirms. In a statement post on their Instagram accounts, the grieving parents said they never would have thought they “would experience a pain like this.”
They welcomed Emeline, whom they called Emmy, in an intimate home birth in November 2016. And photos from the 40-year-old’s skier’s social media gives a glimpse into the Olympian’s love for his little girl.
“It was an amazing day for the Miller family yesterday as we welcomed our baby girl,” Miller captioned a black-and-white photo of Morgan holding Emmy as he cradled their 3-year-old son, Nash Skan.
They all sported wide smiles in the shot, and in a sweet follow-up post Miller shared a shot of Emmy asleep while wearing a pink headband. He wrote alongside the shot: “My baby girl, Emeline Grier #BabyEmmy Named after my grandmother who is still rockin’ it in her 90’s.’
Miller revealed the death in an Instagram post Monday, writing that the family is “beyond devastated.”
“Her love, her light, her spirit will never be forgotten,” he wrote of Emmy. “Our little girl loved life and lived it to it’s fullest everyday.”
