Fathers Day SMS

Father's day is celebrated to express love and respect for one's father. The celebration date varies in different parts of the world, but in most countries Father's Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June every year. Like Mother's Day, the occasion is observed by all age groups and is a great opportunity to show appreciation and admiration towards your dad, feelings that are often taken for granted and seldom expressed otherwise.

Father's Day was first observed on June 19, 1910, by the Spokane (Washington) YMCA (Young Men's Christian Association) in the US, based on an idea endorsed by Sonora Smart Dodd, who wanted a celebration that pays reverence to fathers. Sonora felt all fathers should be honoured and this idea was enthusiastically supported by the church.

On Father's Day, gifts are the perfect way to express your love for your dad. To surprise him, choose an attractive gift to show him he is special. Visit an online or an actual store to find a range of wonderful Father's Day gifts and Father's day gift ideas. Gifts with options to personalise names or emboss pictures on them are also available and best capture the significance of the day.

Father's day greetings will also make your dad feel appreciated. Pick an imaginative and humorous greeting card that carries a touching message. You can send colourful animated Happy Father's Day e-greetings cards that can be edited at your convenience and are available for free on some websites.

Inspirational Father's Day quotes and poems are another popular choice to express love and relive the wonderful moments that the two of you have shared. Sending a Father's Day SMS or text message is also a lovely way to mark the occasion.
