I told my son an actual joke and he groaned. I have officially become my father.

I said 'Why did the scarecrow win an award?' and he rolled his eyes before I even said 'Because he was outstanding in his field!' He GROANED. The groan. I heard the same groan my dad gets. This is it. Im officially a dad dad now. Its happening.

That groan is basically a rite of passage. I get the same reaction from my kids during games when I try to make jokes on the sideline. It's all downhill from here and honestly it's great.

The fact that he groaned before you even finished means the joke was already legendary in his head. That's a win in my book.

Welcome to the club, my friend. The eye roll is the sign you've truly made it as a dad. My boys do the same thing and I wear it like a badge of honor.
