Why do we celebrate Father’s Day?

If we look back at the time, Sonora Smart Dodd initiated the holiday in honor of her civil war veteran father. He raised her and her five siblings as a single parent after their mother died. Taking in the contribution of all dads, Father’s Day was first celebrated in Washington in 1910. 

As the name suggests, Father’s Day is the time to cherish the men, fathers, and all the father-like figures around you. A male or father’s parenting is often taken for granted.
