Buy-A-Gift This Fathers’ Day

This Sunday will be Fathers’ Day.

Our first without Matilda Mae.

I do not write that much about David on this blog.

It is my blog and I talk about me.

I do not tell the world what my husband is doing.

Though often I wish I could.

I am fiercely proud of my husband and I love him with all my heart.

Losing Tilda has served to make me love him even more.

Awesome Daddy of an Angel x

Silently, so strongly, he has taken the lead these past four months

Steered our family through the choppiest of seas.

He has held all of us in his arms

Tilda in his heart

And he has kept us afloat

Kept our heads above the water.

He really is a wonderful man.

The most beautiful of fathers.

I know that we are so lucky to have him in our lives.

I cannot imagine my life without him.

Losing Tilda is truly awful

But if I lost David I am not sure I would ever find the strength to carry on.

He is everything.

All I am and all I have is because of him.

He is my world.

And it is testament to how amazing he is that at 8 months Baby Tilda knew who her Daddy was and said his name as he entered a room.

Dada.

Followed by that magical smile that will stay in our hearts for always.

I hope he will be okay this Fathers’ Day.

I will be there to hold his hand but know that it is going to be tough.

Parenting an angel is not easy on any day.

But significant days are punishingly tough.

Because of all of this

And because he truly truly deserves a treat

When Buy a Gift said that they were looking for a Daddy to test and review a gift

I immediately put forward David’s name

Thinking he might choose a track day, a water based activity or perhaps decide to treat us both to some much needed time away.

He has opted for a sky dive!!

I am not sure his Mum is going to thank me for that.

However it is something that he has always wanted to do

He loves the fear and the taste of adrenalin

And hopefully it will happen on a nice day and we can take a picnic

And watch the planes flying high in the sky

And Daddy falling down, down, down.

I think it is nice that he is going to take to the skies

I hope that it might make him feel closer to Tilda somehow.

I will tell you more about the sky dive once he has done it

But for now

In case the Daddy in your life is an adrenaline junkie too

I wanted to share some of the experiences that he nearly chose

This will also serve as my shopping list

For Christmas and birthdays later in the year.

David briefly considered a bungee jump and also talked about Fly Boarding!

David loves water and so was not at all surprised when the Jetovator Experience caught his eye.

Buy a Gift have so many fabulous experiences to choose from. High energy and adrenaline adventures are on offer alongside high class dining, spa breaks and football gifts.

I am sure that they have thought of every kind of Daddy.

And mummies too for that matter!

If you are looking for a gift for a special someone then Buy a Gift is a great place to look.

Go now, have a look, but don’t forget to come back and see how David gets on with his skydive!!

This post is an introductory post for our Sky Dive review for Buy A Gift coming soon.

  1. When is he jumping ?
    I did bungy jump once. I screamed but I love the adrenaline. It’s too short though. I think a skydive is better!
    I hope you will be okay though x

  2. Now we know where Esther gets her adrenaline kicks from! 🙂
