My husband, David, is always here for me. He helps out taking care of our two-month-old baby whenever I need a break.

I love my Dad because he is the best Dad in the world! What makes my Dad the best is that he plays the role of “Dad” and “Mom” since he has raised me and my older sister as a single parent. He works so hard every day, he has his own business, but he still makes time for ball games, dance recitals, track meets or whatever my sister and I are involved in. We can tell Dad anything. He listens to us vent, he hugs us when we cry, and he corrects us when we need it. Our house burned in December, but my sister and I knew that when Dad said it would all be ok, it would be ok. We knew our dad would work non-stop until he had it built back, and that’s exactly what he did. We know if we need anything, he will make it happen. He’s a “dad” to all our friends as well. They all call him “Daddy Matt.” His girlfriend has two boys who he also treats like his own children. We have all become like one big family, and he is the Dad who loves us all. He does everything from play Playstation with them to coach them in wrestling or train them at the gym. They would say he deserves some kind of “Dad of the Year” award as well. He also takes care of anything his mother needs since she is a widow. He cuts her grass, takes care of her car, whatever she needs. He is the most unselfish person on the planet! He does all this and still manages to also be the best cook ever! My dad is the best!

My father, Robert, is so giving and the most unselfish person I know not only towards his family but everyone he comes into contact with. He is a coalminer and some day’s he works very long hours and still comes home in a great mood with a smile on his face and does tasks that need done around our house. I don’t know how he lives on so little sleep! He also does odds and ends for other individuals when they need him to; he never turns anyone down and always is willing to lend and hand to others. He works so hard to provide for our family and give us things he never had. I am very thankful for him and for all he does for me and my family. A gift card would be great for him to take time to do something for himself!!

My dad is another “frugal dad”. He taught me and my brother coupon-clipping and sale-finding at an early age. He gives his time freely to those who need help or to causes he believes in, and he’s the most patient man in the world.

My dad has suffered two heart attacks since January 5th of this year but he’s still puttering around the house. He’s always been my hero and can fix anything (and still does to the best of his ability). He never just sits (unless the Angel baseball game is on)but is always working on something. He could really use this gift card, even if it was to buy my mom flowers to plant

My dad is amazing! He lost his great job and had to start over from scratch late in life. He started his own painting business and does fairly well. I just worry about him at 61 climbing up and down ladders all day!

Even though he paints for a living, he always has some sort of project going on around the house. It’s what he does and it makes him happy. However, He has actually lovingly nicked named his wife -”my frugel wife.”

This gift card would ensure any projects that would bring him joy, would get completed as his frugel wife wouldn’t mind him doing it as long as it was free!

My husband is an amazing father and is well deserving of the gift card. He has only been a father for 10 months and will be celebrating his first fathers day.

Thanks for the opportunity!

I’d like to enter my husband in this giveaway. He is incredibly patient, loving, Godly, and creative. He makes life fun for me and our 17 month old son, and I know he will do the same for our daughter due in August.

He has been wanting to buy materials to build a garden–to help us on our TMMO, and so he’ll have some yummy produce to cook for his family.

He is amazing, and I’d love for him to win! Thanks for the chance.
