Everyone loves Phil Dunphy. He is the best dad he knows how to be, loves his family, and makes us all laugh a lot. Phil obsessing over his father-in-law's wife Gloria, teaming up with his son to create a new invention, saying he will "fix that step", or becoming Clive Bixby to spice up his relationship, are only a few of the reasons we can't help but love him.

1. He's not afraid to look silly. Ever.

2. He's hip when it come to texting. He uses abbreviations, even if they're a little different than what we know them as.

3. He is always confident in himself, and lets everyone he meets know it.

4. He is a die-hard Bulldog, loves being on his college campus, and still feels like he's 20-years-old.

5. He is always there for his kids, no matter what.

6. He can never get enough of Gloria.

7. He makes sure that everyone knows how important his family is to him.

8. He gives his family ideas for gifts- something we wish all of our dads would do.

9. He keeps his promises.

10. Phil always brings excitement to everyday life, and sometimes that means bringing home an alpaca because "it was the last one."

11. He always tries really hard, even for something simple like celebrating Valentine's Day.

12. He gives his kids reality checks.

13. He is a full believer in magic tricks.

14. He gives great life advice.

15. He has the best examples for everything.

Seriously, how can anyone not love Phil Dunphy? He's the best dad, ever.
