This year’s Father’s Day will fall on June 21, the third Sunday of the month.
The celebration of Father's Day was inspired by the success of Mother's Day (which was observed nationally for the first time in 1914). Sonora Smart Dodd of Spokane, Washington, was listening to a Mother's Day sermon in church in 1909 and decided that fathers deserved a similar day of recognition. The first Father's Day was celebrated on June 19, 1910. It was not until 1966, under President Lyndon B. Johnson, that it was proclaimed a national holiday and observance of this on the third Sunday in June was made a law in 1972.
In line with this, I decided to make freebies for Father’s Day Celebration. I will offer them as soon as I finished doing them. As starters, I did two elements…in postage form. Hope you can make use of them. Do check out from time to time for the next freebie of this kind.
Love that stamp!! Thanks so much!
