Father's Day Car Care

A couple of years ago my kids and I decided to give my husband a car-themed Father’s Day gift. We hi-jacked his car the day before Father’s Day and brought it to the car wash for the most deluxe car wash they offered. They washed and waxed the exterior and vacuumed and polished the interior. Then on Father’s Day morning before church we presented Dad with all of his other car-themed gifts: hanging scent for the mirror, a prepaid gas card, new floor mats and a seat organizer. He loved the gift so much that we’ve given the same type of gift every year since. Every year he gets the same deluxe car cleaning, plus an assortment of extra car-themed gifts. One year we gave him a couple of new CD’s to listen to in his car. One year a mini-vacuum for regular cleanings. Last year we even splurged on an auto start for the cold winter days.
