But if you’re wondering how Father’s Day came to be, then the story is quite simple really. A few years after Mother’s Day was formed, there was popular opinion that we needed a Father’s Day as well; to celebrate the role of fathers on an equal footing with the mothers in their children’s lives.
So, the first Father’s Day was celebrated on 19th June 1910 in Washington, USA. In 1972, the incumbent US President Richard Nixon signed Father’s Day into law, making it a national holiday.
And thus began a worldwide tradition of honoring the heroes in our lives once a year! We began to buy gifts for dads, granddads, dads-in-law, brothers and male friends; to acknowledge their invaluable roles in our lives.
These are incredibly happy Father’s Day quotes for daughters and sons alike. They will remind you how much you love your dad. A small note on his gift with one of these will make it all the more special. It’s a powerful testimony of the place he holds in your life.
