It's that time of year again, and it's time to celebrate the man who makes all the difference in the world. Although most dads do not need a specific date to honor him, every single one of them gets his day on the calendar.
It's never meant to be this way, but it can be incredibly stressful trying to find the perfect gift for the man who doesn't need anything.
Before you start planning for Father's Day, take a moment to relax. There's still time to organize a brunch or even create a gift idea for dad.
Although it's not news to most people, this date changes year-to-year.
Unlike Mother's Day, Father's Day is not somber. It was created by a woman in 1909. In 1910, Washington became the first state to celebrate the occasion.
Although it became an official holiday under President Calvin Coolidge's administration, it didn't last long.
In the following years, retailers tried to make money by pushing for commercialization of the holiday.
In 1972, President Richard Nixon issued a presidential proclamation designating June 18 as the first official Father's Day.
