Well, the Real Dad Moments photo contest ended a couple weeks ago, and was the most participated in contest yet. The day before yesterday, yesterday, and today I’d like to share my favorite 90 entries in the competition (30 each day as bonus afternoon posts). There were so many great photos. So many beautiful moments. So many tender and awesome bits of your lives that you shared. Looking through the 800 or so photos made me so happy because it was a beautiful reminder of all the real dads out there. It was a poignant reminder that fatherhood is not defined by race, beliefs, or social status. Good and real dads come in every shape, color, and size.
I hope these photos make your day just a little brighter. I know they did mine. Enjoy.
Thanks to everybody who participated! I’ll be launching a new contest in the next little bit, so stay tuned!
