…Or, more accurately, the best dad.
Father’s Day is always a tough one. I mean, seriously…how many ties and belts can you buy a guy? For this Father’s Day, I wanted to get Kendrick a present that he could use, you know? And, more specifically, use to do something he’s wanted to do for a long time, but has never really had the time for: getting outside and just going. For the past couple of years he’s spent all of his time either in class or driving back and forth between Yale and our place, and I know he’d love to make being outdoors a real part of his everyday, and so I thought I’d get him something to inspire him to do just that.
Best part: about a hundred yards from our new place there’s a hiking trail that winds up through the hills (this isn’t exactly earth-shatteringly exciting news for me, because hiking isn’t really high on the list of things I seek out in my daily life, but Kendrick is happy about it, so that’s good), which means that if he gets home after work and feels like going for a run, it’s as easy as walking out the door.
So: FitBit it is. (Plus breakfast in bed and afternoon naps by the pool and basically whatever else he wants, because god, is he ever a good dad.)
(And in case you’re all “way to ruin the surprise, Jordan” – I told him not to read my site today 🙂 )
More Father’s Day gift suggestions for the dads in your life, above. (Yeah, there’s one tie up there, but it’s a REALLY good one, promise.)
