GreatDad’s list of best things about being a dad

Long sleepless nights, endless diaper changes, and a spouse
who now has little time left for you anymore. Add to that an overwhelming sense of responsibility
that, at best, leaves you wondering about a largely uncertain future. Sometimes you wonder whether
this is all that being a father is about.

But then, you remember all those little
ways in which the birth of your baby has altered your life forever and you know it’s worth it… a
hundred times over!

Here are just few of those many things that make fatherhood
such a great experience. You can add to this list by sharing your own experiences. (To do so, click

• Looking into those beautiful eyes and hearing your baby say, “I
  love you Dad.” (And your child hasn’t even begun talking yet.)

• Coming home to your baby
  after a particularly trying day at work, and realizing that you have never felt better in your
  life

• Discovering the child in you all over again, as you get down on your knees to play
  with your baby

• Taking endless pictures of your baby, and still feeling that you just
  cannot have enough of them

• Taking your baby out for a walk and being aware of all the
  appreciative glances you are getting

• Learning a whole new language as you communicate
  with your baby
