My dad isn't much of a talker. He usually just nods and makes thoughtful grunts.

But this Father's Day, I realized his quiet presence is the loudest comfort I could ever ask for, especially when he's just there, quietly fixing something I didn't even realize was broken.

I wanted to get my dad the perfect Father's Day gift this year.

So I just subtly moved his favorite wrench one slot over in his toolbox. He'll be happily perplexed for hours.

I gave my dad a gift card to his favorite hardware store for Father's Day.

He said it was perfect, he needed to buy a new organizer for his existing tool organizers.

For Father's Day, I told my dad I was feeling generous and wanted to buy him something extravagant.

He looked at me and said, "Hi generous, I'm dad!"
