Did you know?
Sonra Louise Smart Dodd of Spokane, WA started the observance of the Father’s Day on the 19th of June, in 1910.
She wanted to express her thanks to her own father, who had reared her on his own, since the death of her mother.
Her father, Henry Jackson Dodd celebrated his birthday in June, thus, she chose this month to celebrate the holiday.

I love these quotes about fathers!
My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me
~ Jim Valvano
When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around.
But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years.
~ Mark Twain
My father used to say that it’s never too late to do anything you wanted to do.
And he said, ‘You never know what you can accomplish until you try
~ Michael Jordan
When my father didn’t have my hand . . . he had my back
~ Linda Poindexter
The only way I can describe [fatherhood]—it sounds stupid, but—at the end of How the Grinch Stole Christmas,
you know how his heart grows like five times? Everything is full; It’s just full all the time.
~ Matt Damon
