Work-From-Home Dad Whips Up Fancy Dinner For Kids (PHOTO)

PHOTO: Amazing Dad Whips Up Fancy Dinner For Kids

There's some major cuteness going in this photo posted to Reddit last night.

"I'm a work from home dad and my wife is working a 12 hour shift," reads the post accompanying the picture. "My kids just asked me to make them a fancy dinner like at a hotel so I did what I could. They are currently dining like this while listening to classical music."

Now that's a dad who will go the extra mile to put smiles on his kids' faces. We dig the fancy strawberry slicing and the elegant plating -- very chic. Hat tip to you, sir!
