About House & Home: Father's Day Gifts for Any Budget

House & Home In the Spotlight | More Topics |   from Diane Schmidt I once asked my dad which Father's Day gift he remembers the most. Without hesitation, he told me it was a tie I'd made out of paper and an elastic. He said it was because of what I'd written on it, how he could see the determination in my thick crayon strokes; the use of the bright colors that I knew were his favorite. For years, I wondered why he kept it hanging from a corner of the dresser mirror. But now I know that it really is the thought that counts.   In the Spotlight Father's Day Gifts for Any Budget This old adage of the thought counting more than the money spent is so true, particularly these days when it's difficult to know just what the next year will bring and how financially secure we will be.
