We read and hear everywhere about how great moms are in taking care of their children, but very few acknowledge that dads are awesome too.

I could go on and on about how great dads can be, but here’s the first thing I want to share.

Gregg Mueller of One Dad’s Life came up with these 10 ways dads are like rock stars.

Daddies out there, read on and see how much of a “rock star” you are.

1. At some point we start wearing funny clothes.
2. We are surrounded by screaming, swooning, dramatic girls (if you have girls like I have)
3. We start referring to ourselves in the third person, e.g. “If you don’t get in bed and stay in bed, Daddy’s going to get really unhappy!”
4. We stay up way too late. Unfortunately, it’s not out having a night on the town, it’s because it’s the only time we can get things done we need to get done.
5. Our kids (fans) think we have unlimited money!
6. We go by a single name: Daddy <=> Fergie. See? Almost the same.
7. We play to our audience. By golly, if the kids (fans) want burps at the dinner table, we’ll deliver them!
8. We are idolized for a few years by our kids (fans), then they are embarrassed they ever liked us for a few years, and then they like us again…largely from nostalgia of their childhood.
9. Around our kids (fans) we act much younger than we really are!
10. We play a mean guitar! (Well, maybe a mean Guitar Hero, at least)
11. (A bonus reason!) We have beautiful women (the moms) at our side.

Hugs to all “rock star” fathers out there!

Of course, to the biggest and brightest star in my life, THE HUSBAND, nobody rocks like you do.
