The true fathers of invention.

1. This dad who ‘seas’ed an opportunity.

My dad bought a snorkel for the sole purpose of taking naps in the pool

2. This dad who wanted to ball—but not too hard.

3. And this dad who is used to a large mess.

My breakfast burrito is leaking and I don’t have any napkins in the car.

4. This dad who reached a new level in multitasking.

5. And this dad who added his own flair to his daughter’s hair.

6. This dad who supported his daughter through all the highs and lows.

7. This dad who had a light bulb moment.

“I know dads are meant to be embarrassing but mine just takes the cake. When in Hollister please do not complain about how dark it is and then retrieve a head torch from your pocket and continue to shop amongst the Christmas crowd as if completely normal.”

8. This dad who is not tooth fairy approved.

9. This dad who hacked Snapchat’s filter game.

10. And this dad didn’t beat around the bush when it came to this invention.

11. This dad who knew better than to just wing it with a toddler on an airplane.

12. This dad who wasn’t bugged by this fly swatter.

13. This dad who wanted to make sure his son was having a ‘wheelie’ good time.

14. This dad who didn’t see problems—only solutions.

Told my dad I ripped my pants, this was his solution

15. This dad who got cheesy—but not in the good way—when he had to get out the macaroni his son stuck up his nose.

16. And this dad who really had his thinking cap on.

17. This dad who definitely put safety first.

18. While this dad did not.

19. And finally, John Legend. He proved that celebrity dads can hack it with the rest of them as he tried to get his daughter, Luna, to take a good passport photo.
