"It is not flesh and blood, but the heart which makes us fathers and sons." - Johann Friedrich von Schiller

"My father didn't tell me how to live; he lived and let me watch him do it." - Writer Clarence Budington Kelland

"I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection." - Sigmund Freud

We know our fathers could either be exaggerated or apathetic, either way, they can never be too emotional but know that they actually count every gift as special no matter how small or big it is. If you can't think of anything to write on your cards, however, you can try giving him a gift instead. Some fathers can be really appreciative of your thoughts especially when they realized you have actually been paying attention to them.

Theft-proof credit card case. Men prefer carrying cards than cash. They're lighter and less bulky, truth be told, but you may ought to buy one that would keep them off theft of card information. RFID are a great innovation, but it can be scary as someone also has the capability to access your information by using a device.

Belts. Common but not so common gift idea. It's not all the time that we can buy someone something in their size. Try snatching one of his belts and use that to get the perfect size. You'd be pleased and he'd be surprised you actually got him the right size.

Beanbag Beds. Nothing like anything to get a great place to relax their backs from the tough day they had gone through. These beds are just like the La-Z-Boy they dreamed of having although it's never too late for you to actually gift them those, too.

Toolbox. The ultimate gift you may ever give your dad. It's their best friend, really. After all, you do ask him to help you fix that frustrating door or jammed window. You'll definitely get that 'look' when you give him one.
