A Father's Day Surprise

Here on the blog, I talk a whole lot about my kids but you don't hear much about my husband. I should fix that.

Steven is an amazing man of God, a loving husband and a phenomenal father. Never have I met a man who comes so close to meeting the mark. No one is perfect but most days I am left wondering where he could possibly improve. Do they really come any better than this? Doubtful.

This man is such an amazing example of our Heavenly Father, not only to our children but to me as well. The love of God shines through him. So, this father's day, I want to make sure he knows just how amazing he is. To see himself and his role, the way we do.

 I saw this post on 30 Day Handmade and loved the idea of giving a gift every hour. So I borrowed that idea and paired it up with an idea I had of a gift to represent things about Steven.

With the help of some mommy friends, I came up with a list of words that described a Godly man, I chose ones that could describe my hubby.

Found scripture to back up each word. And purchased gifts for each word. Some gifts simple, like a payday bar for our provider. And some larger, like a new study bible for the spiritual head of our home.

  

I wrapped them up. Added a tag with the hour to open and the scripture. I left off the word to describe him because I want him to be a little confused with the randomness.

At the end of the day, with his last gift, Steven will get a card that lists the word that went with each hour/gift. And of course a thank you note for not only all he does for us but for who is.

What are you giving your husband or dad this year? Have any fun ideas up your sleeves?
