NATIONAL PARENTS’ DAY 2023: Parent’s Day, celebrated every year in the fourth week of July, holds significant importance as it recognizes parents’ invaluable role in our lives. From the moment of our birth, they have nurtured us, guided us, and provided unwavering support on our journey to independence. Their selfless love and sacrifices deserve our heartfelt appreciation.
This Parents’ Day, let’s make a resolution to cherish their dedication and unwavering commitment to our well-being. We can express our gratitude in simple yet meaningful ways, such as cooking their favourite meal, surprising them with thoughtful gifts, or gathering for cosy family get-togethers. It’s a day not only to celebrate our biological parents but also to honour those parental figures who have been there for us like parents.
