As the saying goes, a dad is a son’s first hero and a daughter’s first love. He’s Superman, Batman, Iron Man, Captain America, and Prince Charming all rolled into one.
He’s expected to be firm but compassionate; to be a good provider for the family, but one who’d never miss a soccer game or a ballet recital; to be an inspiration, a good influence, and to make a difference in the life of his children. In other words, the world’s expectations of him can be endless, yet sometimes being a father can be a role that is thankless.

But that shouldn’t be the case. This Sunday, it's Father’s Day across the globe. Make it count by showing your dad that you love and appreciate everything that he did and still does for you.
Here are some awesome ideas.
Prepare a feast fit for a king.
A Father’s Day dinner for the whole family this Sunday? Whip up his favorite or your specialty dish (or both, whatever rocks your boat) and relish those childhood memories while sipping delicious wine. Can’t cook? No worries. Order take-out food in advance from his favorite restaurant, or better yet, treat him there.
Tip: Sometimes, it’s all about presentation. Take your table setting to a whole new level with fresh flower arrangements. Any food besides this exquisite orchid arrangement will look tempting.
Spend quality time with him.
With everything going on in your own life – career, kids, family, and the whole brouhaha – time can be one of the most precious gifts you can give anyone, even dad. This weekend go pay him a visit and just be his good ‘ole little girl once again. Catch up on what’s going on in his life with a cup of coffee. Join him in doing the things he loves or take him to places he’s always wanted to see. Just be there for dad this time.
Give him a thoughtful keepsake.
