Default She Loved Her $25 Gift
Thank-you all so much for all the help you gave me in getting my daughter the "perfect" gift in our extended family gift exchange. I took everyone's input into consideration and came up with this ~ it is a framed collage of all the pictures I have of my daughter and I together, from a baby ~ vacations ~ girl scouts ~ dance ~ church ~ backyard ~ painting her parking spot and decorating for homecoming ~ college tennis pics ~ high school and college graduations ~ and of course centered around the longest walk of my life as I handed her off to the kidnapper . She LOVED IT You can't see it but above the picture of her hitting the baseball off the tee in the backyard, I wrote "Your Daddy Loves You"...that is what I have always written to her...never "love dad"...always "Your Daddy Loves You"...in all the hidden notes in her lunches, in her notebooks, on her car windshield, on her cards, in her e-mails, etc.

Gary , that was such a thoughtful gift. Those are the best kind! My MIL always gives us that type of gifts. I really treasure my home-made family cookbook that she made for me last Christmas (with a picture of each family member with their special recipe).

Thank-you GALS...you are all so kind

She called to thank me again wednesday morning, as she was sitting in the airport, waiting for her flight with the kidnapper to New York City for New Years....wouldn't you think a newlywed would rather spend New Year's Day with her daddy?

I asked my son if he saw my gift to his sister and he just said "Sa-WEEET Pops! I want one for my birthday."
