What is Super Dad?
Learn MoreWhat's the most rewarding part about being a dad?
For me is seeing my kids smile and enjoy life to the fullest. Watching them grow into confident, brave little people who are preparing for future challenges. Watching them grow strong and healthy as can be is a blessing beyond all measures. My whole purpose on Earth right now is to make sure they are set up for success when daddy is no longer here. Im not perfect or have infinite time but I try my best.
Why do you strive to be the best dad you can be?
I grew up without the words "I Love you" or "Im proud of you" in my household. Now as a dad I realize how much of an impact that has on my children. I always want them to feel loved or admired by their father. The example I set will definitely reflect in their futures and how they behave towards their fellow neighbors in life. I also want to build my kids up, in confidence, in love, in generosity, in the fear and love of God. Its my job to get it done no matter what.
How would you use the $25,000?
I would pay off as much debt as possible. Gives me a little more breathing room to plan for my kids. It will give me an opportunity to do some things off the family bucket list. My oldest daughter who is 9, was born in Hawaii but was a baby while there. She wants to visit her birth place. My youngest baby, who is 6 wants to go to Disney so bad, so that would be great. I wanna give my babies as much of me as I can. Create memories that will last a lifetime for them. Always look back and smile.
