The History of Father's Day..👏

Father's Day, contrary to popular misconception, was not established as a holiday in order to help greeting card manufacturers sell more cards.

In fact when a "father's day" was first proposed there were no Father's Day cards!

Mrs. John B. Dodd, of Washington, first proposed the idea of a "father's day" in 1909. Mrs. Dodd wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart. William Smart, a Civil War veteran, was widowed when his wife (Mrs. Dodd's mother) died in childbirth with their sixth child. Mr. Smart was left to raise the newborn and his other five children by himself on a rural farm in eastern Washington state. It was after Mrs. Dodd became an adult that she realized the strength and selflessness her father had shown in raising his children as a single parent.

The first Father's Day was observed on June 19, 1910 in Spokane Washington.

At about the same time in various towns and cities across American other people were beginning to celebrate a "father's day.".

In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge supported the idea of a national Father's Day. Finally in 1966 President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the 3rd Sunday of June as Father's Day.

Father's Day has become a day to not only honor your father, but all men who act as a father figure. Stepfathers, uncles, grandfathers, and adult male friends are all honored on Father's Day.

In my Opinion:-😊

Every Day is a Father's Day, Every Day is a Mother's Day...What the Parents do for their children throughout the life, I think just honouring or respecting or remembering just one day is nothing compare to their Sacrificies, Love, Caring, fulfilling the needs..giving their best inspite of the hardships or struggles they go through...they only want to see the smile on their children's face...

"Happy Fathers Day"

Little girl & her father crossing a bridge

Father said:
Please Hold my Hand.

Girl:
No Dad
You hold my hand.

Father:
Whats the difference?

Girl:
If i hold your hand
i may leave your hand in some difficulty,
But if you hold my hand
i m sure that you will not leave my hand.

May God protect our parents...
