Suara.com - Hari Ayah Nasional diperingati setiap tanggal 12 November sebagai penghargaan pada ayah atas kasih sayang mereka untuk keluarga. Berikut 15 ucapan Hari Ayah Nasional dalam bahasa Inggris yang dirangkum dari berbagai sumber.
Sejarah Hari Ayah Nasional cukup unik karena muncul secara spontan setelah peserta Sayembara Menulis Surat untuk Ibu bertanya, kapan diadakan sayembara yang sama untuk ayah.
Kala itu tahun 2004, Perkumpulan Putra Ibu Pertiwi (PPIP) yang mengadakan Sayembara Menulis Surat untuk Ibu menampung ide itu lalu memutuskan tanggal 12 November sebagai Hari Ayah Nasional.
Sebuah buku berjudul 'Kenangan untuk Ayah' yang berisi 100 surat hasil seleksi Sayembara Menulis Surat untuk Ayah diluncurkan dalam peringatan Hari Ayah Nasional pertama di Maumere.
Karena perbedaan latar belakang, cara anak-anak merayakan Hari Ayah Sedunia dengan Hari Ayah Nasional sedikit berbeda. Perayaan di Indonesia kerap diisi dengan kegiatan seru untuk mempererat hubungan antara ayah dan anak.
Sementara di belahan dunia yang lain, anak-anak perempuan akan memberikan bunga mawar pada ayah mereka setelah kebaktian di gereja.
Bunga mawar merah diberikan pada ayah yang masih hidup sedangkan mawar putih digunakan sebagai apresiasi anak-anak pada sosok ayah yang telah meninggal.
