Dodd thought it was necessary to choose a day to honour great and loving dads. 8 her father was born on June 19, she chose to hold the first Father's Day celebration on his birthday in 1910. In 1924, US president Calvin Coolidge liked the idea of a national Father's Day. 9 , in 1966, the third Sunday in June was named Father's Day. There are many ways for you to 10 your love and thanks.

Send him 14 : the red rose is the official Father's Day flower. If he has a computer, cover his desktop (桌面) with 15 like "I love you, Dad." | ||||
