Home From Diane Schmidt, your About Home Editor 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. Give Him a Gift He'll Love I always find fathers the most difficult to shop for. Maybe it's because my dad would rather visit the dentist than step inside a shopping mall. It makes it difficult to know what might be the perfect gift that expresses everything you've been wanting to say.
