Last fall, I blogged here about why dad's are great. Here's a few more reasons off the top of my head why my kids are thankful for their daddy:
- they get to see the world from up high riding on his shoulder
- they can be carried for a longer period of time when their legs get tired from walking
- they get beautifully cooked sunny side up eggs for breakfast on weekends
- they get cut up mangoes and pineapples... and honeydew and watermelon for that matter (mommy is not as good with the big knife and hard to cut fruit)
- they get bugs calmly removed from their presence (a "non-shrieking or panicking" response)
- they are more likely to get a second ice cream treat if the first ice cream treat falls on the ground
- they get more freedom to pick out their own clothes without argument... even if it is clothes for the wrong season
- they get a real live "prince" to dance with before going to bed at night
