Greetings Gifters!

It's practically June already. We loved, honored, and lifted up mothers in May, and now we are ready to share the same devotion to our dads in June.  We are taking it a step further by celebrating Essentialgifting men in the month of June.

June is all about the Guys

Dad's It's Your Day!

Fathers are favored. And for good reason. These men offer their devoted support, love, and protection to their kids of all ages. They provide wisdom, guidance, and even a lesson here and there on things like checking your tire pressure and changing your oil. To put it simply, dads are great - period.

And, let’s be honest - many of us wouldn’t be who we are today without the father in our lives.

Want to know the best part about dads? Anyone can be one. And we don’t just mean biologically. There are so many extraordinary men who step up and follow through on fulfilling the role of a father - teaching young boys how to be grown, respectful young men and little girls what it means to be respected and loved. And, while every dad may be different, they all have one thing in common: they put their kids and families before themselves, being the true patriarch of the family.

So, what makes dads so great?

What can you give your dad this Father's Day to show him you love and cherish him? After all, how do you even begin to put your gratitude for him into a gift? By choosing something that brings him joy, you will brighten his day and warm his heart (whether he will admit it or not!)

Tips for Father's Day & Summer Birthdays for Him

• Does your dad have a favorite sport or sports team?
• Is your dad always seeking an adventure?
• Does your dad’s love of travel often take you to see great places? Do you struggle to keep tabs on his location?
• Perhaps your dad is always seeking the closest green.
• Is your dad into cars? Bikes or motorcycles?
• Some dads are into physical fitness, whether a runner, a weightlifter, or something else.
• Often find your dad poolside firing up the grill?
• Hobbies, such as woodworking, are something to keep in mind when seeking something that will bring joy to your dad.
• Does your dad grow his own produce or some of the most beautiful flowers? Many dads have great green thumbs when it comes to gardening.
• Would you call your dad tech savvy?
• Music brings the world together – as well as dads and kids.

So, whether you have a biological dad, a stepdad, a grandpa, a pawpaw, a papa, a pop, a mentor, or any other magnificent guy in your life who has filled that role – make sure you take the time to let them know just how special they are this Father’s Day with a gift designed just for them.

Don’t forget – Father’s Day is June 16, 2019!

I hope I'm at least half the dad he didn't have to be.”
