God Bless your dad and all the men and women like him who are going to be away from their families. It doesn't really matter what you do with him as long as you spend as much time with him as you can before he leaves. When my brother went two years ago his kids all worked with him for one day putting together a scrapbook for him with photos of them all, drawings, cartoons cut from the paper anything and everything to make him feel connected to home while he was gone. Instead of going out to movies they rented videos and spent the time together at home they played games in the back yard, talked and just enjoyed each other.

If my dad was leaving for Iraq I wouldn't care what we did as long as we were together. Their's a lot of things you can do with your dad. If he's into sports go to a game of some sort. Go out to dinner and talk. Do the things he likes to do. If you are close to your dad then that shouldn't be too hard to figure out.

The best thing for you to do is hang out and spend as much time together as possible. Tell him every day that you love him and that you know things will be fine.
I deployed not to long ago, and I have a child, spending every second I had with him was the best thing. Best wishes to you and your father.

Well just spend time with hi is going to be the best present you can give him. He will remember those times when he is gone and that way they are precious to him. Do fun things you do with him. Tell him we said good luck and may God Bless your family

my husband just came back from iraw he just wanted to spend time with the kids befor he left just being with them and knowing that they loved him and that they would be thinking about him was all he wanted so just spend time with him. "hint" write a letter to him and stick it in his bag so he doesn't find it until he gets over there that will get a smile out of him the kids did that for there dad he loved it god bless your father and we will all be praying for you all.
