The Gift in Every Day is exactly what I NEEDED to read. With an amazing wife, and five wonderful children, this book reminded me of the gifts I hold, and my responsibility to leave a legacy in this world. From sobering thoughts to hysterical moments, this wonderful read has it all. Thanks, David!

David Avrin has written a wonderful book. His experiences can help all of us look at our own lives and see the joys that we all have. His open style is refreshing and his style was great. I laughed over his stories about his children. I cried about the letter to his father. It was great.
The Gift In Every Day

I couldn't put this book down. I read it in 2 evenings. It made me laugh out loud, inspire me and make me realize how precious life is. I plan on buying several copies to give as Christmas gifts this year. A great stocking stuffer. I admire the way the author writes and the way he looks at life. There are so many wonderful life leassons in it. Thanks!!
Warm, funny, and inspiring, but not sappy

This is a great read that will have you laughing one minute, and reaching for a tissue the next. It strikes a chord because it's real, not one of those contrived, corny books. Avrin is obviously a regular guy who lives a regular life, but the way he is able to capture the moments we all experience is anything but regular. The last author that hit me this deeply was Robert Fulgham. Honestly, I couldn't put this book down.
Truly a GIFT

This special book was a priceless wake-up call for me. I promise to be a better father, boyfriend, man and boss and to have more fun in and out of work in the process. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did.
