Each and every year, Father’s Day is a special opportunity to celebrate all the great dads in the world. Now that it’s just a few weeks away, we at PostalAnnex have a question: what is it that makes dads so special? Let’s try to figure it out.

Was it his ability to muster the energy after a long day to play catch, shoot hoops, have a tea party, or run through the sprinklers? Maybe it’s the fact that dads never fully grow up themselves and that having a catch after work is all he wanted to do anyway. Dad, for all the afternoon catches and late night board games, we say thanks.

Perhaps it was the role of Mr. Fix It he played. Whenever a toy would break, Dad would be there. Chair with a wobbly leg? No problem. Dad would figure it out. Looking to hang a new poster on the wall in your room? Dad would make sure it was level and in the perfect spot. Dad, for wearing so many hats, we say thanks.

Maybe it was when things weren’t going right or bad days were had, he always seemed to be there to lend a helping hand or a shoulder to cry on. Have an embarrassing day at school? Dad was always there with a story of his own and to let you know that those types of days are few and far between. Dad, for all the jokes, hugs, and anecdotes, we say thanks.

Superhero movies are all the rage nowadays. However, let’s not forget the first superhero we ever knew, Dad. Remember when you fell and scraped your knee on the sidewalk? Dad was there to pick you up and make it all better. He was the strongest guy we’d ever met. Dad, for being the original Superman, we say thanks.
