What is Super Dad?
Learn MoreWhat's the most rewarding part about being a dad?
The most rewarding part of being a dad is watching my girls grow into the people they are meant to be. From the biggest milestones to the smallest moments, I get to be there beside them. Nothing compares to hearing “Daddy” and having them run into my arms. I hope when they look back on their childhood, they remember feeling safe, loved, supported, and knowing Dad was always there.
Why do you strive to be the best dad you can be?
I strive to be the best dad I can be because I know my girls are watching me and learning from the example I set. I want them to see what hard work, love, honesty, and showing up for the people you care about look like. I’m not perfect, but every day I try to be better. My greatest responsibility and privilege is being their dad.
How would you use the $25,000?
I would use the $25,000 to invest in my family’s future while creating memories with my girls that will last a lifetime. I’d put some toward our financial security and use part of it for a family trip and experiences we may not otherwise be able to afford. Providing for my family matters, but giving my girls memories they’ll carry forever would mean even more.
