A father is every son's first hero and every daughter's first love. That in itself is proof that your father is an awesome person and he deserves a medal. He brought you into this world and has done everything in his power to make your life better. He has kept the family together and stayed strong against all odds. In fact, the list of things each of our fathers does for us is endless and for each of these things they deserve a round of applause! Here are 15 reasons to salute our dads for being so awesome!

1. When you're in trouble, be it emotional or financial, he's the first person you want to call.

He might get angry with you and sometimes you may not go to him, but in reality he is the most practical counselor you can ask for!

2. When your mother was looking after you, he was looking after both of you.
