Four kids in Atlanta are living the dream: their dad is a part-time superhero. Blake Wilson, a father of four, is quickly becoming a social media sensation known as “BatDad.” In his Vine videos, Wilson dons a Batman mask and films footage of himself parenting as BatDad. “I’m just a normal dad with four kids and a wife having fun with them. We live a very normal life,” Wilson tells the Today Show.
Watch below for a glimpse into the spectacle that is BatDad (a personal favorite at 0:55), and more viral parenting videos we can’t get enough of.

I thought, I have to capture this image otherwise I will forget what she looked like.” Read more, here.

I’m Daddy and I Know It
