The title, that’s how it all started. One of the little ones came to me asking what we would be getting Daddy for Father’s Day. Of course, he’s not going to tell because he’s super great at keeping a secret (so he thinks).
This is how it goes down.
I explain to my boys that I was unsure as to what Daddy might like for Father’s Day. Since my boys HATE to shop, but since I wanted them to be a part of the shopping experience (finding Dad a Father’s Day gift is a big deal), we decided to go online to Kohls.com and search their “Father’s Day Gifts” section. <—–I linked it for you in case you might be interested in looking yourself. Of course, my boys wanted to get Daddy EVERYTHING they saw. We searched for a bit and ended up with 4 shirts, 2 pair of shorts, a cross necklace (that’s my favorite part of the gift), a bottle of cologne and about 7 items (2 pair of sandals and 5 clothing items) for my boys. I was super impressed with the fact that I didn’t spend over $200, yet we got Dad quite a bit for Father’s Day and were even able to get a little something for everyone else in the family as well!
Ok, before I get carried away, let me continue on with the story. I always get a little excited about saving money and want to go on and on sharing that part of the story.
So, Daddy went away for an overnight business trip. He was only gone one night, but the boys were SUPER excited to see him when he got home. They acted like he was gone more like a week!
So, when Daddy walks in the door what does the little one do?
He runs to Daddy with a very small box!
I don’t even have time to respond before I see my husband standing in the doorway holding up a shining metal cross.
He looks at me and says, “What’s this for?”
Of course, I tell him he’s naughty for opening his Father’s Day gift early and that, Surprise! That’s part of your Father’s Day gift! He had no idea, but our little one that promised not to tell, yeah he was the one that told. He simply couldn’t wait to surprise his Daddy! Maybe he even thought since Daddy was home it was Father’s Day? No, I don’t think so! I think he simply got excited about the gift and about Daddy being home.
So, on Father’s Day my husband will be opening his clothing and cologne. I have no idea if he knows what’s coming next as my little guys can be pretty sneaky sometimes, and they may have already spilled the beans!
What are you getting Dad for Father’s Day this year?
