Before you have children, you can live a carefree and selfish life where things are just about you and your wife. Once kids enter the picture, your life becomes hectic, but is enriched and changes in ways you can't even begin to imagine. You may be surprised at the things you'll do as you strive to be a great dad to your children, and in the process become a better human.

You Become less of a Daredevil: Where you once didn't hesitate to go skydiving or extreme snowboarding with a why-not?! attitude, you now know fear and think to yourself, "what are this little baby and my wife going to do if I break my neck doing these stupid stunts?"

You Respect your Wife and Love her in a New Way: She waddled for nine month carrying your baby and then you watched her give birth. As you see her nurturing your little tyke, you realize that you are darned lucky to have this woman around to help you raise this little human being. She's a rock star and you know you couldn't do this without her.

You Are More Protective than a Mother Bear: Let no other human or furry beast look at your child askew because you will throw yourself across a mall aisle to save your baby. You will silently curse a teacher for not appreciating your son's penchant for jumping during math class and will pounce on anyone bold enough to make your little girl cry.

Yes, Virginia, there Really is a Santa Claus: Santa, the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny come back to life for you as you desperately want your child to believe in the same fanciful things you did as a kid. You experience a great rebirth in fairy tales, and you get a real charge over telling your kids stories that thrill them. You even read them the same books your parents read you.

You're a God and Expert: If you've done even an average job at being a dad, your kids idolize you without hesitation. You walk into the house after a day at work and they fling themselves into your arms as if they haven't seen you in a month. They also think you are an astronomer (Dad, why are the stars are so shiny?); a physicist (Daddy, why did that liquid explode like that?); a veterinarian (Pop, I don't know why my goldfish has been sleeping all night!) and a plumber (Dad, I accidentally dropped my Lego into the potty and now all the water is coming downstairs). They think you know it all and can fix it all.

Cartoons Become Intellectual Brain Candy: You laugh out loud at Peep and the Big Wide World, and think that Quack is the ultimate comic genius. You memorize the words for all the opening songs of your child's favorite toons no matter how goofy they are, and you'll sing them when you're driving your kid to school at 7 am (and sometimes even after you've dropped them off).

You Finally Appreciate Your Parents: Now you realize what you put your parents through when you fell off a swing and broke your arm, came home an hour late for curfew, brought home that nutty girlfriend with blue hair, wrecked the family car (twice!), and didn't become a doctor after they paid for pre-med college courses for two years. Even after all that, they still love you and adore your children.
