Get yourself something nice “from dad”

wait this is so cute :,)

I do this every birthday, carrying on a tradition! My dad never knew what presents to get us once we outgrew Barbies, so he took us on “shopping sprees” instead of buying us rando stuff. Yesterday I went to my twin nephews’ high school graduation and wore a charm bracelet he bought me years ago on one such shopping trip, so he would be there in spirit, even though he passed away almost a decade now. It worked. ❤️ PS this is also a recommendation for shopping sprees when you don’t know what to gift a kid. I think he gave us a $200 budget in the late 80s early 90s, which felt pretty generous at the time!
