The morning of September 27 was a bit more special, though.

"I like spending time with my dad before I go to school," Aija said.
About 200 more dads, brothers, grandpas and other male role models got to enjoy a free breakfast with their loved ones before school Sept. 27 during the annual Dads Take Your Child to School Day celebration.
As part of the event, Braden River Elementary staff set up a special "VIP" section in the front of the school's cafeteria, which the men there said made them feel extra special, too.
Among the participants was West Stephan, who doesn't normally get to take his first grade son, Alexander Stephan, to school.
"Usually he comes to school with his mom because I have to wake up at six o'clock in the morning for work," West Stephan said. "He was really excited to have me take him this morning."
