Fathers Day

Father's Day is celebrated on the first Sunday of September so the date of Father's Day is never fixed. It complements Mother's Day, the celebration honouring mothers.
People express gratitude for fathers and thank them for all their care and support, most often children gift ties, chocolates or other gifts.Father's Day is a celebration inaugurated in the early twentieth century to complement Mother's Day in celebrating fatherhood and male parenting, and to honor and commemorate fathers and forefathers. Father's Day is celebrated on a variety of dates worldwide and typically involves gift-giving, special dinners to fathers, and family-oriented activities. The first observance of Father's Day is believed to have been held on June 19, 1910 in the U.S.
I got this beautiful card and yummy gift in the post Friday, what a great surprise :-) Thanks Jacqui
