Happy Father's Day 2023!!
Someday I will find my Prince, but my Daddy will always be my King.” So true, so cute, and so very innocent. Isn’t? I found this beautiful quote while exploring the greeting cards section in my local store. Father's Day in the United States is the third Sunday of June. It celebrates the contribution fathers and father figures make to their children's lives. Today, at Mother’s Gurukul podcast, let’s celebrate Father’s Day!!
I was curious to know more about Father’s Day, and I found something interesting. ‘A woman called Sonora Smart Dodd was an influential figure in the establishment of Father’s Day. She is also recognized as the mother of Father’s Day. Her father was a civil war veteran who raised six children
by himself after the death of their mother. This was uncommon at that time, as many widowers placed their children in the care of others or quickly married
again. Sonora was inspired by the work of Anna Jarvis, who had pushed forMother’s Day celebrations. Sonora felt that her father deserved recognition for
what he had done. The first time Father’s Day was held in June was in 1910. President Nixon officially recognized Father’s Day as a holiday in 1972.’
