Grandparents Day
September


Grandparent's Day: Did you think this one might have roots in the ancient cultures? Grandparent's Day is a modern holiday. In 1978, President Carter proclaimed Grandparent's Day as a National Holiday, to be celebrated in September. You might be thinking - wait, didn't the ancient Chinese honor their ancestors? They did! All of them. All the time. This is different. This is a day set aside for each of us to thank our own grandparents for all they have done for us.
