10 Reasons To Celebrate Father's Day

Father's day is celebrated on third Sunday of June. Do you know from where the inspiration to celebrate Father's day come. Obviously it is Mother's Day.

Sonora Dodd, one of six children raised by a widower tried to establish an official equivalent to Mother’s Day. Urging her state to recognize and honor hard working fathers, Washington became the first state to celebrate Father’s Day.  However, efforts to celebrate the nation’s fathers didn’t meet with the same enthusiasm as honoring mothers-perhaps lacking in the same sentimental appeal that mothers have. Over the years men resisted the concept-scoffing at the attempt to “domesticate manliness with flowers and gift-giving.” Despite men’s reluctance gradually the idea of celebrating fathers caught on.
