The Perfect Mom or Dad Gift: We Love You Because Print


Sawyer and Priscilla's dad and I separated and divorced 2 years ago.  It was an amicable divorce and the kids still visit him (3+ hours away) every other weekend.  He is a great dad.  But for the last year, we have lived with my fiancé, Cliff.  And he has proven to be an awesome step-dadI have been so lucky to find a man that has accepted me and my children with open arms.

The kids adore him and were very excited to help me make a gift for him.  I came across this We Love You Because print idea via pinterest.  I knew it would be a perfect inexpensive but heartfelt gift for Cliff for Valentine's Day.  You can find a detailed tutorial over at Positively Splendid, but I adjusted ours to fit all four of us and left out the word "dad" since Sawyer and Priscilla call him "Cliff."  This would make a great gift for any mom, dad, or grandparent any time of year, but especially on Mother's Day or Father's Day

Do you ever make handmade gifts for Mother's Day or Father's Day?  Do you kids like to help?
