Although
Mother’s Day is typically more celebrated than Father’s Day, we wanted to make
sure not to forget about our amazing fathers, dads, daddys, papas, etc. this
month! Our fathers do so much for us our
lives, usually the unappreciated things – pay the bills, supply the food, protect,
discipline, etc. Sometimes it is
difficult to show appreciation for these things that we just expect our fathers
to do anyway.
Father’s Day
origin dates back to 1908. Sonora Smart
Dodd was one of six children raised by her father after her mother passed away
giving birth. During a church service to
honor mothers, Sonora decided it was high time fathers, like hers who
sacrificed for years caring for her and her siblings after her mother’s death,
got the appreciation they deserve. She
solicited several churches, storekeepers and her local YMCA for support for two
years before finally achieving her goal.
Washington state celebrated the first Father’s Day on July 19, 1910. Other states adopted similar celebrations,
but it wasn’t until 1972 that Richard Nixon declared Father’s Day a national
holiday.
Hard as it
is to believe, we’ve only been nationally celebrating the efforts of our
wonderful fathers for a little over thirty years. Although most fathers are wonderful providers
and protectors, let’s not forget that they also teach us how to play sports,
teach us to drive, encourage our accomplishments, give us sound advice, and
pick us up when we’re feeling down.
