Nothing will teach you to improv like being a Dad. Do you know why? Because being a Dad is totally unscripted and their isn’t any way around it. That’s part of the fun of having kids, hour to hour, minute to minute, even second to second… You never know what you’re going to get. You might say, it’s the World’s Toughest Job. You’re not going to find a “real” Dad through a casting agent!
I remember when my little girl went to her first day of kindergarten. I was preparing myself for crying and tears and maybe even a hissy fit or two. We dropped her off at her class room and she said, “Bye Mommy and Daddy”, and walked in without giving a second thought. All of my preparing paid off… My wife cried almost all day. Being a Dad covers a lot of different areas.
This Father’s Day, I’m letting my Dad know that I’m thinking about him and I understand the World’s Toughest Job. My daughter and I went to Cardstore by American Greetings and designed a card especially for him. It was ridiculously easy and the “kid” and I had a great time doing it. We went and picked out what card we liked, most of them you can also add your own pictures, and started the process.
She knows her Granddad isn’t a “frilly” card type of guy, so she picked out one she thought was manly.  You can design the outside, the inside and leave a place or two for personal greetings. It’s a great way to tell a loved one how much you care and add your own personal touch. We definitely are going to be using this service quite a bit.
The card cut off for Father’s Day cards to be shipped in time for the holiday is June 9th.

Be sure to remember the Dad’s in your life this Father’s Day. It’s a hard job and sometimes it’s nice to be reminded that all of our hard work doesn’t go unrecognized or unappreciated. After all, sometimes we’ve got the World’s Best, World’s Most Fulfilling, World’s Craziest and World’s Toughest Job!
I partnered with Cardstore from American Greetings and Life of Dad, LLC for the #WorldsToughestJob Dad Casting Father’s Day promotion and was compensated for my involvement.
