Fathers Day

The History of Fathers Day

The story of Father's Day: In 1909, Mrs. John B. Dodd, of Spokane, Washington, first proposed the idea of Father's Day. She wanted to honour her father, William Smart, a Civil War veteran who was widowed and left to raise six children alone. The first Father's Day was observed on June 19, 1910 in Spokane. Mrs. Dodd wanted Father's Day to be celebrated on the first Sunday in June, her father's birthday. However, the Spokane council couldn't get the resolution through the first reading until the third Sunday in June.

Around the same time people were beginning to celebrate Father's Day in other cities and town across the United States. However, although Mother's Day became a recognized holiday in 1914, it wasn't until 1966 that President Lyndon B. Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the third Sunday of June Father's Day. The white or red rose is the official flower for Father's Day. Mrs. Dodd suggested that people wear a white rose to honour a father who is deceased and a red rose for a father who is living.

I found this on google and thought that you might like to know how Fathers Day came about. I truly enjoyed this and I hope you did too!

A traditional day

When the pilgrims first came to America they were in search of freedom. They wanted the freedom to worship God freely. When the pilgrims came to this great nation many did not survive the first winter. Later they came to meet some Indians who taught them how to plant corn and many other things. In return when the food was harvested they invited the Indians to feast with them. The pilgrims made this a way to thank God for what they had. It was the start of a new tradition. Now each year we gather together with family and friends and share what we are most grateful for just as the pilgrims did with the Indians on that special day. It is a special holiday for me because I can be with the ones I love and I can share how special they are to me.

getting a pet?

When getting a pet, there are things you must consider. One must think about how often he or she will be home. Some pets need to be close to people at all times. Usually, dogs are in this category. Try to think about whether or not this animal could affect your health in any way. Some animals can cause allergic reactions. Different animals are used to different habitats. You should ask yourself, "How much space will my pet need according to their size and species?" Some pets need to live in bigger homes rather than tiny apartments. If you ever consider getting a pet, think it through carefully for your sake and the pets.
