No way do I want to fork out hundreds of dollars and the bike just sit in the garage. Great idea for the hubby. This may be a gift from the kids to him. We all can get into the action.

If I might suggest an alternative Father's Day gift: design a t-shirt, hoodie, or hat with a phrase that your dad says all the time! One of my dad's favorite sayings is "you have the same body now that you have when you get older." It would be a fun hat to give him ;).

I looooove the Magic Jack idea! I would also like to add something uniquely personal and geared for the newer dad: a custom t-shirt with their child's handprints or footprints on them! I made them myself in the past, and let me tell you, my kids' dad LOVES them -- he still wears them after almost 10 years! I found a website that makes it SO much easier than when I did it: www.WalkOnMom.Com. They have the pre-printed t-shirts and paint kits for only $20! What a steal. Great directions, too. Wish I had this when my kids were younger. Now I'm getting them for friends who've got young kids. They'll cherish it forever. Fantastic assortment! I looooove the Magic Jack idea!

(opting for the espresso maker...) I'd like to add to your fine gift list a gift I find works best for my dad and my grandpa (so lucky to be celebrating his father's day too) - I recently found this site: www.lightaffection.com that can make personalized lamps or night lights off of your photos! It is such a unique gift that even my dad doesn't have it yet. Great gadgets You have there, I’m so lucky to be a mom and celebrate my day first!

I'm crying so loud inside my heart try to understand why this happen to me. Why me? How come I am the one to be left alone and endure all these pains? I know my daughters are happy with my wife and my wife happy with her new man. I should be happy for them and move on but here I am doing this to myself, being all alone and so confuse with my life. I look back and thought thru what I have done so wrong that made her being so heartless to me. I'm just human you know and people make mistakes. I know I don't get along with her step dad and step brother. I hated about what they have done to her in the past and I said such thing to her and her family. I mean when I think about it up until now I still hate how they treated me and being so two faces between me and my wife. They gave me so much pains and drama all those years. I never thought that not getting along with in-law would give me so much pain and heartache. I didn't know how to covenant with them, that doesn't mean I had to put up with them and constantly defended myself around them with all their rumors, and my wife shouldn’t take side to abandon me out my own home. I want to see my daughters so much, I haven't see my kids since 12/26/08 never did get the chance to say I love them nor hug them nor kiss them goodbye because I was so busy of arguing with my wife. I miss them so much; I hope they understand someday that I'm not just ignoring them. I want them to know that I love them with all my heart and I will always be here for them with open arms waiting. god please helps me make it thru life with what I'm going thru right now.....
