Man, I could read these dad humblebrags all day long and I wish I could have included all of them in this post because they are so good and uplifting (and funny, like Brad’s at the bottom of this post). Please go read through the entire Facebook thread where dads tell us what they are good at.
As a dad, what's something you do really well?

Nick Fasbinder IV: Slam dunks and step back jumpers over my 17 month old on the Little Tikes goal.
Randal Stout: Story time every night. The kids love having stories read to them that are years above their reading level. My middle child tells me how vivid the images are in his head from listening instead of watching tv. Kids are 7, 9, and 11. They will never outgrow it.
Adam Stamnos: Create a routine with my 3 boys to manage the day from waking up, getting to school, working from home and in the field, picking up my older boys from school, getting lunch served, homework done, daily chores done, play time, bathe and dinner all before mommy gets home on her late days so she comes home to a clean house, and clean children that ate and are ready for bed after mommy time. Keeps all of us sane.
Nathan Moore: Communication. My 7 year old is extremely logical and good at critical thinking. As annoying as all the why questions were growing up, I tried my best to fill her with information instead of brushing her off and shushing her. If she asks something like how are tornadoes made, I’d explain to her and we would look up YouTube videos showing all the information and stuff. Now, she’s so far ahead of all the other kids in her grade. She’s even fluent in sign language.
Josh Harrington: Everything! LOL. [I’m a] single father of only 20 years old and to be honest, I’m killin’ it!
Ben Brummitt: I no longer gag when changing a dirty nappy…that’s a win!
Brian Royer: Cook! Though my wife’s take out choices for her nights are hard to beat some times!
Zack Musgrove: I’m a pretty good jungle gym because my son always wants to crawl on me.
Jeremy Radant: Make my kids laugh and braid hair. Being a single parent of 2 girls, someone’s gotta do it and damn I do it well.
Ben Brookman: I answer more questions than Siri and I’m a master LEGO builder, it’s a toss up.
Joshua Perez: I’m the first one awake in the house getting lunches and backpacks ready.
Gary Williams: Tell stories to my little girls. we have a whole series in my head I can recite to them by names. It’s called “Princess Triangle”
Brad Gainor: I’m the best at doing nothing. Nobody does nothing better than me!
