The photos of a dad who took part in a mermaid photoshoot with his eight-year-old daughter for her birthday have gone viral, capturing the hearts of everyone who saw them. Donned in pink and purple costumes - including mermaid tails - the pair looked like the best time creating the special memories for the little girl's birthday. Dad goals much?

Desirae Deal, the photographer who captured the event said, "I had the honor of doing a mermaid session for this sweet girl's 8th birthday, and all she wanted was for her Dad to join in on the fun. Let me tell you he did NOT disappoint! The laughs, the joy, and the memories they created were the absolute best gift he could've gave her. I have no doubt that this story, this priceless memory, will be talked about and cherished for generations to come. Take the pictures. Play with them every chance you get, for they are only little for so long." Check out the precious pictures below! 

With the world upside down, any big calendar moments during the pandemic have had to be adjusted accordingly. This means that Father's Day this year is being celebrated slightly differently than usual, with some social distancing love. People are getting creative and these Tweets show us just how much you have to think outside the box in difficult situations. Happy Father's Day to all you dads out there!
