A Little Ackward

My father-in-law's birthday is coming up and we aren't really sure what to get him. He always says for us not to get him something which kind of makes things easy since there's never anything he wants or needs. He's the kind of man that also keeps himself at a distance so you never really know him and he never really knows you.

One year for Christmas he got me this piece of heart pendant jewelry which was REALLY nice but totally not something I'd wear. I've held onto it for our daughter to have later on because I really didn't want to get rid of it. That was probably the best thing he's ever given me if I got anything at all from him...much better than bath soaps. :o}

It's not really about the relationship or lack there of. I never understood people that think caring is shown through how much money you spend on some one. I mean, is that really necessary?
