I THINK WE SHOULD HAVE A DAY TO EXPRESS OUR LOVE TO OUR PARENTS, SO FATHER AND MOTHER'S DAY GIVE US A OPPORTUNTY TO DO THOSE THING.OTHERWISE WE WOULD FORGET THE LOVE WE SHOULD GIVE TO THEM.

I like both ways. :D

1. In their own right, separately, Mother's Day and Father's Day are merely a sign of love. :D

2. Together, Mother's Day and Father's Day are merely signs of love. :D


All the best,
