That will be an experience you and your daughter will remember forever!
I always had the same desire. So, about 15 years ago I decided I needed to do it before I looked like George Bush jumping as an old man. At the time they had classes you could go to and have your first jump as a solo HALO jump. Did the class, and jumped in the evening. Plane went up to 20,000 feet, and out I went. Free fell to 5,000 feet and deployed the parachute. The landing was NOT picture perfect, but was free of injuries. Figured any jump after would never have the same excitement as the first, so never have done a repeat. But, I will always remember that jump!
Good luck!

I'd tell the DG story and put it on youtube before I jump out of a plane. You should just go do it- wifey is either happy you're alive, or it's not your problem anymore. That's an easy one.

My wife actually gave me a tandem jump for my birthday years ago, but it was right after she initiated a life insurance plan and it was before we had the kiddo. I had wanted to jump for years.
Chew, if this is something that's been on your bucket list for awhile, then you're gonna love it. The view is amazing and surprisingly you won't feel like you're falling, more like floating for awhile with a big fan blowing on you! That's so cool that you'll be jumping alongside your daughter, I hope you both enjoy it immensely!
And we want to watch the video....
