Fathers Day June 20, 2010
The idea of Father’s Day was conceived in Spokane, Washington by Sonora Dodd while she listened to a Mother’s Day sermon in 1909.Dodd (now known as “the mother of Father’s Day”) wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart, a widowed Civil War veteran who was left to raise his six children on a farm.

Fatherly Wisdom:

One night a father overheard his son pray: “Dear God, Make me the kind of man my Daddy is.”
Later that night, the Father prayed, “Dear God, Make me the kind of man my son wants me to be.”
