(April 10, 2016) Its time to let your brothers and sisters know how much you appreciate them. Sunday is National Siblings Day!
Every year on April 10, theday is observed to honor the bonds between brothers and sisters.
According to the Siblings Day Foundation, New Yorker Claudia Evart founded this day after she lost both her siblings early in life. She chose April 10 because that was the birthday of her late sister, Lisette.
Siblings Day follows the spirit of Mothers Day and Fathers Day a great American tradition and celebration of family-unit values, the organizations website says. It is an uplifting celebration honoring people who have shaped our values, beliefs and ideals.
It isnt an official national recognized holiday, but the Siblings Day Foundation is actively petitioning the White House to issue a presidential proclamation.
