What My Dad Did Right – Consistency

Eric is a daddy blogger and runs the website: Better Husband and Fathers. You can also follow him on Twitter @BetterHusbands

As I was thinking about which “right thing” to write about – I had a epiphany.  The best thing about my dad is that he has consistently done so many things right AND he still doing them!  I am 26 and now have a wife, a 2 year old son, and another on the way; but, my dad is still there when I have any questions, concerns, or anything at all.

Last week I got back into my car after going to the store and it was completely dead.  I’m not 100% useless when it comes to cars, but I knew I needed assistance from someone who knew better, so I called up my dad.  After he heard I was having car trouble, he dropped what he was doing and researched my problem, called his own Dad and brother to see if they had any ideas.  This is a good example of who my Father is.  He has consistently supported me throughout my life and I know that he will continue to do so.

As I became a father, I knew what I wanted to be like.  I want to be like my own dad.  There are far to few people who say that.  I am very lucky to have had my dad growing up and it continues to be a blessing to this day!  I blog about being a Better Husband and Father and my dad is a role model for both of those roles!
