Unique Ways to Show Dad Your Love and Appreciation on His Birthday
Honoring My Father on His special day
Good morning, Icons,
Tomorrow marks a special occasion: my father's 63rd birthday.
I want to extend my heartfelt wishes for a fantastic day, knowing the significance it holds for him. If you too have a cherished father figure, consider giving him a hug today. Additionally, I hope you're making progress towards your July goals, in all aspects of life, including love, marriage, and family.

Unique Ways to Show Dad Your Love and Appreciation on His Birthday
Last month, we marked Strong Dad June, and I kicked off last year’s celebrations by honoring my dad. The repost is in this newsletter.
I could speak volumes about his determination, strength, and resilience—we could be here for days.
However, I'd like to revisit what I've previously shared about the lessons he imparted, emphasizing the significance of the father-daughter bond and revisiting key points from that newsletter.
To provide some background, in 2003, my grandmother, his mother, passed away at 62. Given my father's numerous health challenges, making it to this day has been a significant milestone for him.
A unique way to celebrate my dad, and yours, is to continue to show them that you care, be a good person honoring their name and use his mistakes to improve your own life and that of the grandchildren.
Unique ways to Celebrate Your Dad’s Birthday
Celebrating a dad’s birthday can be a wonderful opportunity to show appreciation and create lasting memories. Here are four unique ways to celebrate:
Themed Memory Lane: Create a walk-through exhibit at home featuring photos, mementos, and significant items from his life. Each “station” could represent a different era or important event in his life. End the exhibit with a video compilation of family and friends sharing their favorite memories and well-wishes.
Adventure Day: Plan a day filled with activities he loves but rarely gets to do. Whether it’s fishing, hiking, golfing, or a road trip to a place he’s always wanted to visit, make the day all about his interests. You can even include a surprise element by not revealing the activities until the moment arrives.
Skill-Sharing Workshop: Arrange for a private class where he can learn a new skill or hobby that he’s shown interest in. It could be anything from cooking classes, woodworking, photography, or even flying lessons. The key is to choose something that he’s passionate about but hasn’t had the chance to explore.
Legacy Project: Start a project that can be passed down through generations. This could be planting a tree, starting a family recipe book, or building something together. Not only does it offer a bonding experience, but it also leaves a lasting legacy that commemorates his special day.
Remember, the most important aspect of celebrating his birthday is to focus on what makes him feel loved and valued. Happy planning! 🎉
Don’t Give Up
Marriage is not easy, but it is doable.
Most times we don’t have the right resources, the right upbringing or just choose the wrong partners and that is why relationships fail.
My husband and I boiled down our relationship to a single ideology that has kept us together for 13 years through a lot of unforeseen circumstances that we have pushed through; we never gave up.
In my latest eBook, “Don’t Give Up: A guide to Help Navigate Modern Marriages and Win” I discuss key important factors to help you win and build a social empire that thrives.
Many organizations, media outlets and political figure heads will talk all day about the need for wholesome families, intact homes and marriage.
Yet, where do people go for realistic help in navigating the craziness that dominates our media, our content and our society?
Iconic Media is here.
And today, with an upgraded subscription you can get on the pre-order list for the last new eBook to show you how.
“Happy Birthday, Dad!”
I am so proud to say he made it and to share a birthday week with me.
Everyday above ground is a blessing for us all but we in our family take great gratitude from the lord, that Dad is still here with us to share his wisdom, his unique sense of humor and even to deal with us adult kids/grandkids and our uniqueness.
To the #1 Grandpa out there: We at Iconic Media say:
Happy Birthday, Dad/Grandpa!
And we say it with his favorite birthday song.
