If you’re a normal, well-adjusted person, you probably don’t have a favorite celebrity dad on social media. Lucky for me, you clicked on this, so you’re just as screwed up as I am, and your favorite celebrity dad on social media is Ryan Reynolds.
When he isn’t making blockbuster movies or walking the red carpet with his equally hilarious wife, he’s being a dad. That being said, he’s letting everyone in on the realities of being a dad. Those moments even being a millionaire movie star can’t fix. You have to keep it fun and have a good sense of humor. It gets, uh, playfully dark.

Put the baby down in her crib tonight. She scrunched her nose so cute, giggled, then turned into thousands of bats.
