Father’s Day Recap
On Friday afternoon I realized that Father’s Day was–um–right around the corner. Henry and I have a tradition of making Matt a card with one of Henry’s footprints. But beyond that, I was clueless. I brainstormed ideas as I drove to pick up Henry from daycare. I thought of just the thing to buy Matt, but then I decided that I didn’t want to set a precedent of buying him a big present for Father’s Day (since it’s already hard enough to come up with good ideas for Christmas and his birthday).
So I tabled the present idea and instead decided to have a “sweet treat” theme for the entire weekend. Henry and I rushed to Whole Foods to grab a gluten-free muffin mix for breakfast on Saturday, gluten-free cupcakes for Saturday night, and gluten-free cinnamon rolls for Sunday morning.
Matt loves sweet things, but we don’t usually keep those kinds of things around the house. I think it was the perfect way to celebrate all the sweetness he brings into our lives.

I love this because it's all about thoughtfulness. In the end, I think that's what is most important to me–not how much things cost, but how thoughtful a gesture is. Hope the sweet treats were a big hit!
