So, it would be safe to assume that there is a similar day f

14、or stepdads, too. Right? Well, it depends on what you read. A Google search brought up posts that say, for example,“ It“s on father“s dayfather“s day is for fathers, step-fathers and people who are like fathers to youit“s a day for making father figures feel special.“ Further searching found a Stepf

15、ather“s Day Facebook page that says, “The unofficial Stepfather“s Day is the fourth Sunday of June.“ Unfortunately, as of the publishing of this article, only 30 people have “liked“ the page.

18、en. These unsung (未被颂扬的) family heroes deserve “official“ days of honor.

Follow me and get your voice heard. How cool it would be

When my wife asked, “ Did you even hear what I just said? “ I would defensively say, “Of course I did!“ In January, I began to lose my voice.
