Do you remember what made your dad seem larger than life when you were a kid? For me, it was my dad captaining a huge fishing vessel. When he was at the wheel in the pilot house, he seemed like a real-life superhero to me. Dads can have super powers in big ways and small ways. We asked families to share photos that illustrate why dads are basically superheroes.
