deejuliet agony auntSam IS Taylors Dad. Just because he didnt contribute the sperm that created her does not mean he is not her Dad. He is the one who takes care of her physically, finacially and emotionally. He is the one that loves her and takes care of her and the one she will call DaDa as soon as she is able. Absolutely get him a Fathers day gift. It doesnt need to be extravagent as I (and he)know you are tight with money right now. Some nice, but still inexpensive, ideas might be a picture frame, especially one that says something about Dads, daughters or family on it. How about a blank journal so that he can write notes to his daughter that she will be able to read when she is grown? Tickets to in inexpensive event or festival would give him a welcome night out. (I am in Cleveland, OH and we have a minor league baseball team and you can get tickets for only $6 each!) A letter from you praising him and thanking him will really let him know how appreciated he is. I am sure you can think of something lovely and meaningful to give him. Good luck!

rachal  agony auntyes i think that you should get him something for fathers day! i have a step-father and he treats me as if i were his biological daughter. i love him dearly and know it would crush him if i didn't get him something for father's day. it doesn't matter wether or not the kid is his, it matters how much love exsists. and by what you said that's a lot. it's not very often that you find a guy that young that will help support a small cild, especially one that isn't his. and for where to get the present, you should plan a shopping date or something and observe which one he looks at the most. good luck! and a belated happy baby to you!

YES, a young guy that can stick around and love you after a situation like this... he deserves an AWARD! But I'm sure what he would appreciate the most is some recognition from you.

A great guy like him deserves it.

You're a lucky girl.

Blessings!

heyheyhey agony aunthey-well i think you are very brave and mature given you had a child so young. It is really admirable that your boyfriend is supporting you through this. A father is the one that looks after and cares for the child - not the "sperm doner". So your boyfriend has obviously been there so it may be nice to get him a card. I am sure your situation is tight so he won't expect anything extravagant. About that toy you mentioned - I don't know but ebay is normally a good place to check. Good luck
