Today is Father's Day and I went over
to my parents place to see dad and have lunch, hubby wasn't there as
he worked last night and has to work again tonight so he stayed home.
Our daughters gave him his presents this afternoon, Kathy and
Jessica went halves in something for him and Natasha gave him a new
pair of track pants which I bought for her to give to him. I gave him
a number of little things.
I spent Friday shopping for Father's
Day presents for Tim and for my dad. I didn't just buy something from
me for dad I also bought something for my sisters to give him so all
in all I had to buy 5 lots of presents...............
Why do I buy presents for my sisters to
give dad well if I didn't he wouldn't get anything from them as they
are always “broke” and I do it for dad he would be upset and hurt
if he didn't get a present from each of his children.
So what did I buy for my daddy he got a
small key chain watch, drink cup with a straw for his water (as no
one can drink out of his water bottle/cup but him), from Jeannie, a
box of chocolates & a gift voucher from Sandra, a jacket & a
sml packet of Baileys chocolates from Sue, a book and 2 scratch
lottery tickets from me. I also bought nice cards for him one from
each daughter which he seemed to like................although with
dad it is hard to tell as he is great at faking it..........lol
What I mean by that is he will act like
whatever gift he gets is just what he wanted and will be all wrapped
in it even if he really things that it is not something he will use
or wear............I love that he is like that.............
I hope my dad truly did have a
wonderful Father's Day as I think he is the best dad ever..........
aww, he sounds like a good guy, and he's also lucky to have you as a daughter i think!
ReplyDeleteYou are the world's best daughter, too! How generous, thoughtful and unselfish you are! I am sure your Dad loved his cards, gifts and visits!
ReplyDeleteHope he had a great day. Happy Father's Day to him.
ReplyDeleteyou buy presents from your sisters. that is pretty generous of you Jo-Anne. hope your dad had a lovely day and your sisters appreciate you.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious to know if your dad is aware that you buy everything.
ReplyDeleteWe always give one thing from all of us to our mum for mothers day just because no matter what it is she never likes it, says its a waste of money etc... this way we've all given it so don't feel so bad.
you are amazing and what a great day your dad must have had.
ReplyDeleteyou are an amazing daughte and sister! i certainly hope your sisters appreciate all that you do (and i bet your dad suspects that you do all the purchasing).
ReplyDeletefather's day here is in June.
Jo-Anne you have a heart of gold. Do you sisters appreciate what you do for them? I sure hope so. You're one in a million!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with the others Jo=Anne, you are such a good daughter and sister. I honestly don't know what they would all do without you. I'm sure that your dad was thrilled with his presents and cards.

Hi Desiree

Hi SkippyMom

Hi Yevisha
I think my sisters appreciate me I do it more dad as I don't want to see him disapointed......
Hi Bubbles
Dad has no idea that it is me who buys everything, but mum knows.....
Tim use to be pretty off handish when he recieved presents and if he got something he really didn't want/like you could tell and it would upset the girls but in the last couple of years he has changed a bit and seems to be more appreciative.......
Hi Becca

Hi Teresa
Yeah my sisters do seem to appreciate what I do for them......
