Welcome to the Daily Dad podcast where we provide one lesson every day to help you with your

most important job being a dad. These are lessons inspired by ancient philosophy, by practical

wisdom, and insights from dads all over the world.

Thank you for listening, and we hope this helps.

Don't make them wait for it.

When you're gone, when they go through your stuff, or when they talk to your friends at your funeral, it will be undeniably clear. God, your dad just loved you so much. You were all he talked about. He was more proud of you than anything. Just look at those photos he kept in news clippings and mementos. They'll know this because it's true because the

evidence will speak for itself. But what about, you know, if you speak for yourself? We've talked

about this before. You can't wait to let them know how you feel about them. Don't wait until it's

too late. Tell them now. Let them know you're proud of them. That is impressed as you are

with their grades or their job, that it's just one drop in the enormous bucket of affection you feel for

them. They never had to earn your approval because they've had it since the moment they were born.

They deserve to hear that now. They deserve a chance to live with it, to carry it in their

pocket when they go to work or run out onto that high school soccer field or while they're

raising kids of their own. Don't wait until it's too late. Do it now. Hey, thanks for listening to

the Daily Dad podcast. You can get this via email every day as well at DailyDad.com.
