And although we've done our best to show him we care from afar, its not the same as having your kids surround you. So we celebrated Father's day today (the next several Sundays have us completely booked!) as if it was the real day, I don't think the kids even realize not everyone made pretty cards for their dads today!
I stayed up late last night making Steve's favorite muffins (knowing there was no way I would get up before him) so he had something to snack on before the rest of us rolled out of bed for the real breakfast - french toast. The kids gave him homemade cards and a candy poster.
They filled out a questionnaire about their dad. (Download printable file) 
These always crack me up - like Hunter saying, "Dad loves to go to...meetings." who doesn't love a good meeting! 
We showered him with love and gifts and service and told him over and over again that he's the best dad ever. It was the best fake father's day ever!
Such cute ideas! Love the card!
ReplyDeletei did a card like that for paul last year and i'm pretty sure it is his favorite gift he has ever gotten. this year i am going to frame it so he can take it to work. i'm totally stealing your questionnaire and candy poster idea. thanks!!
ReplyDeleteI love the poster! One question, what does it day under the Extra gum package? I'm making this for Father's Day but am having a hard time figuring that out. THanks!!
ReplyDeleteUnder the gum it says, "Your're the best in a crunch". Thanks!
DeleteSorry my above comment I meant what does it say not day.
