Dad!
Don't you just love him? Ask him what he wants for Father's Day and he says, "Nothing!" If you buy him underwear or a tie, you feel inadequate. If you try to find something special, he'll say you spent too much money. At least my dad would. But let's not go there! The first Father's Day was June 19, 1910 in Spokane, Washington (at least it says so on the net). It became a national holiday in 1924, and its designation as the third Sunday of June happened in 1966 when Lyndon B. Johnson proclaimed it so. How did it happen, you query? Well, this woman, Mrs. Dodd, started the ball rolling. Her father had been a Civil War veteran and had raised six children on his own. When she presented the idea, the citizens of Spokane jumped on it, and soon it was being celebrated across America. Thank you Mrs. Dodd. Here are some great ideas!
