Corny Things Dads Say And Do
Why is it that dads feel the need to say and do the corniest things? I know I'm not the only one that does this. When my daughter was young I would play catch with her and every time it would go something like this:
Me: Amanda, you want to play catch?
Amanda: Sure Dad.
Me (after her first throw): You throw like a girl.
Amanda: (big eye roll) I am a girl Dad.
My daughter is twenty-seven now and I would still say that if we were to play catch. I know it's not funny, but I love her reaction to it.
She recently posted an adorable picture of her five month old baby to Facebook. He was laying on his stomach with one hand on his chin, just like he was posing. With the help of my wife I recreated the pose with me as the focal point and postedback with the comment, "Look, we could be twins."
Her response warmed my heart, "Dad... you're such a Dork."
