Wishing a very happy Grandparents' Day to everyone this weekend. Did you know?
👵 The first Sunday after Labor Day is a national holiday "to honor grandparents, to give grandparents an opportunity to show love for their children's children, and to help children become aware of strength, information, and guidance older people can offer".
🤗 The holiday was first suggested by Russell Capper (age 9 in 1969) in a letter to President Richard Nixon.
👴 The proclamation designating Grandparents’ Day as a national holiday was signed by President Jimmy Carter in 1978.
