The great things about Dads...

1. They say things like "Pull my finger" and "Wow! Great burp! That was at least an 8!"
2. They teach you that bodily functions are hilarious and they demonstrate often!
3. They can put the fear of God in you, but they will also do the same to the kid who's been bullying you.
4.They get so much joy from embarrassing you and do it so often that there's not much left that will make you blush.
5. They teach you things like how to drive a stick shift, change your oil and tires, oh and how to make a really good spit wad.
6. From Dad, you learn words that you've never heard and interesting ways to use them in sentences.
7. They think the fact that you are laughing when they tickle you, means that they should continue to do so until you can no longer breathe and your face turns blue.
8. There are those times when you get yourself into a sticky situation and you just know they are going to be sooo mad! But then every once in a while they surprise you by calmly helping you through it and giving you a hug when it's over.
9. They make up funny songs and goofy dances that crack you up when you're 5 but make you cringe and roll your eyes when your 15.
10. Dads are the best at killing spiders, checking for monsters under the bed, fixing things that we break, always knowing where the TV remote is (and heaven help you if you lose it!), being able to fall asleep in the middle of a sentence-sitting straight up and also knowing exactly when to take the kids out for a little drive because Mommy needs some serious alone time before her head explodes!!
