Well everyone, today is a pretty big day. Watch this video to find out why. Also, it's probably super awkward so please no judgement giraffe. And I look like a hot mess -- not that that matters, but I just want y'all to know that I'm conscious of my disheveled state. This eskimo is like, mega exhausted and should probably have gone to bed hours ago instead of staying up...

DAD'S HAIKU:

Father and daughter

The two of us are alike

But very different

For one, I’m a girl

And you are a full grown man

But I have your genes

Like you, I am tall

Unlike you, I wear dresses

I have your humor

Also your good looks

You are very creative

But hate arts n’ crafts

Maybe I’m like mom

And you’re really not my dad?

Nope – I have your toes

We bond: House of Cards

Maybe even Bob’s Burgers

And cribbage of course

I have wrecked your cars

And I am sure broke your heart

Through my kid mistakes

You’ve always been there

And for that, I owe you tons

You are like, the best

Except when we camp

No one wants to be by us

Because you snore loud

Behind oink like snores

Is a man with a great heart

I call him my dad.
