A father is every son’s first hero and every daughter’s first love. That in itself is proof that your father is an awesome person and he deserves a medal. He brought you into this world and has done everything in his power to make your life better. He has kept the family together and stayed strong against all odds. In fact, the list of things each of our fathers does for us is endless and for each of these things they deserve a round of applause!
Here are 15 reasons to salute our dads for being so awesome!
1. From your first toy to your first pocket money, he is the man to thank for!
2. When your mother was looking after you, he was looking after both of you.
3. Whenever your mother says no, he’s always been the go-to man.
Whether she is angry with you or just in a bad mood, your father is the person you always run to!
4. When you’re in trouble, be it emotional or financial, he’s the first person you want to call.
He might get angry with you and sometimes you may not go to him, but in reality he is the most practical counselor you can ask for!
5. Most of us got our first walking, talking, cycling and study lessons from our dads!
He slowed himself down for our baby steps to keep up, made us mug those endless math-tables and held our bicycles before we rode off.
6. He took us on countless piggy back and horse back rides as kids without complaining!
7. He has often put his work aside to attend your sports day, annual day, etc. just to make you happy!
8. When we are at our lowest, no one can motivate us the way our dads can.
His guidance is forever available and effective because he knows our potential and accepts our mistakes.
9. He will criticize us and scold us, but he does it for our own good.
At the end of the day, who knows you better than your own father? He gets angry only because he expects more from you!
10. We’ve always lived in the assurance that he will always be there for us.
