BuzzFeed posted this frankly adorable submission from a daughter who discovered that her father had been collecting a wonderful gift for her over a number of years, and which was more than worthy enough of being shared with the world. The poster’s father has been collecting a lifetime of positive comments and affirmations that her teachers, coaches, and principals had given her. Not only that, he managed to transform those fantastic and inspiring comments into a powerful, wonderful book for his daughter, filled with memories and emotions she’ll treasure for the rest of her life. It’s enough to make you get a bit teary-eyed. Seriously.

If you’ve got any great examples of your own dad’s awesomeness, or if you want to spread the love about someone else’s inspired and inspiring gift giving, please let us know in the comments below!
