To Dad, with love...

When kids are little, the Father's Day gift often comes from mom.  Mom, this is your chance to say all those things that never get said, all those things that don't get said often enough.  Being a parent is challenging at times.  This Father's Day add some hand-written coupons for Dad from Mom in Dad's Father's Day card. 

Here's the Father's Day Coupons we used this week in Mommy & Me classes:

This coupon entitles dad to one night out "with the boys".

This coupon entitles Dad to _____________________________.

This coupon entitles Dad to one-half hour of uninterrupted listening by mom on the subject of his choice.

This coupon entitles Dad to Mom's approval on something that's important to him (even if Mom doesn't exactly agree)!

This coupon entitles Dad to a great big smile.  Recommended for use when Mom's not happy with something Dad has done.

This coupon entitles Dad to a sincere compliment.  He can pick the time and the place.

This coupon entitles Dad to a romantic evening of his choioce.

This coupon entitles Dad to some fun and fiendship, maybe after an argument.  Consider it a get-of-the-dog-house-free card. 

Father's Day isn't just about being a dad.  It's also time to acknowledge your partner in this parenting adventure.

A special Happy Father's Day to all the first-time dads out there!
