Gifts always need to be thoughtful and something that the person would enjoy. A son sewed a shirt for his dad and his reaction to it was the best. In a TikTok video posted by @daddyfiles, the son tells his dad, "I got a shirt that I made at a sewing class." Aaron asks, "You made that for me?"

"Yes," the boy explains, "I did the buttons and I did the button holes." 

Pointing at the back pleat in the shirt, he adds, "I had this little thing in the back, I don't know what it's called. But I made it myself and it was hard because I just so over a bunch of fabric but I got stuck a couple of times."

When his dad asks why he selected this design for him, he says, "I chose this pattern because it just looks cool to me. It stands out to me. And it goes with jeans like you usually wear." The video concludes with the boy's father asking if he can wear this shirt to dinner and his son agrees. "Thank you, buddy, you're so talented," says the father. This adorable video soon went viral with more than 11 million views. It is captioned, "Sam made me a shirt! Wow."
