Since Halloween is in the air, I'd like to take a moment to acknowledge the super heroes in our lives. Though these super heroes lack the costumes and capes, they still manage to save the day. They are the men we look up to, the men that we challenge, and the men that have the qualities us, women, look for in our future husbands. These men are our very own fathers.
My father is my super hero. No matter the day or time, he is there for me and will do anything for me. I have been blessed with such a great role model and I could only hope my future husband is half the man my dad is. Our dads can become our best friends and that is exactly what mine is. They see the danger ahead of time, they keep you mentally sane in stressful situations, and they teach you their ways to help you succeed in life. There is so much love and support that they give us and no one can replace them.
If you are a daddy's girl, you will understand when I say you'll have more in common with him than any of your best of friends. These might be just a hand full of the things you guys do together:
1. Watching your favorite TV show/movie together
I don't know about y'all, but my dad and I cannot get enough of The Bachelor. Oddly though, he is the one who got me started on watching it and not the other way around.
2. You laugh at each other's corny jokes
My dad stays telling corny jokes, but to me, they are hilarious. He is the funniest person I know.
3. You call him when you just want to talk to someone
There have been times during college (especially finals week) when I ended up calling my dad at least once a day for a whole week to either just talk, tell him of anything stressful going on, or to get some advice.
4. He knows when you're upset and can instantly make everything better
My dad always knows when I'm upset, even when we are just talking over the phone. No matter what I'm upset about, he can always make me feel better.
5. He makes you want to be a better person
My dad is the kind of person I strive to be every day. He is so selfless and caring to everyone he meets. He is the kind of person who has everyone's best interests at heart and cares for everyone without having to think twice about it. My dad isn't just a regular dad, he's a cool dad.
