College student Sophia Wilcox surprised her stepfather, Brian Sandusky, with the most incredible Father’s Day gift last year. She created a framed piece of artwork out of supportive Post-It notes he wrote to her while she was in middle school.

“During middle school, my stepdad used to leave me a note on my door each day to inspire me. well, I kept those notes & It’s been 6 years since then. today I gave him those notes back,” she wrote on Twitter.

The gift brought Sandusky to tears.

“He was so shocked when I gave it to him because he hadn’t known that I kept all the notes. He told me later that he was beyond moved,” Wilcox said according to WDRB. “He’s been in my life for about 10 years now. He’s a very supportive man and always tries to make me laugh, even on a bad day.”
