International Father's Day
Fatherland begins with a father... We all come from childhood, said Antoine de Saint-Exuper. We all come from our father's house, we are all connected to the family like a tree is connected to the soil on which it grew.
The words father and fatherland have the same roots, and the meaning of these words is similar. The father is the main man in everyone's life, it is the support of the family.
Every year, International Father's Day is celebrated on the third Sunday. This is a holiday of selfless devotion, loyalty to your fatherly duty, the ability to treat your children with boundless love and patience.
International Father's Day has been celebrated since 1910. Mrs. Dodd is called the initiator of this holiday. She wanted to express her gratitude to her father, and in his person - to all caring fathers in America who are involved in raising children. The father of the founder of the holiday was named William Smart, his wife died giving birth to her sixth child, but a single father successfully raised a newborn and five more children.
The holiday has become international. This holiday is aimed at enhancing the role of the father in society, drawing attention to the problem of responsible parenthood.
Our dear fathers! We congratulate you on the holiday! We wish you health, happiness, prosperity, may your children bring you a lot of joy!
