Dad & me Father's Day 2016 |
Writers are naturally curious, so I did some
research. The holiday was started in the United States in the early twentieth
century. Although you might think it is the same as our Mother’s Day holiday, it is not as popular as Mother's Day. More research found that Father’s Day only
became official in 1972. Mother’s Day started in 1914. I am not sure why it
took so long to recognize dads…the real dads, whether biological or those who
have taken in step kids or adopted children, but they all count.
I was out of
the house by the time Father’s Day started back in '72, and I hope I did not ignore the
concept. (Dad, did I send you a card at least?) I have always loved my dad, and appreciated him the best I could...well I did present him with two grandsons.
