Describe the best gift you ever received or gave:
The best Father's Day gift I've ever had was a fax I received while I was on a 24 day long business trip to Taiwan. I was starting to really miss my family when this fax appeared one morning under my hotel room door. My 2 year old daughter drew pictures of herself and my wife waving at me. She also scrawled the words, "Happy Father's Day Daddy! We miss you, please come home soon!" On the signature line after the word, "Love," my wife and daughter's lips were imprinted on the page. I later asked my wife how she'd done it and she said that she'd put lipstick on my daugther's and her lips and had kissed the fax.

What made this gift extra-special?
This gift couldn't have been more custom-made and thoughtful to a Dad on Father's Day who had been away from his young family for so long.
