Did you know that the US, in addition to Mother's Day and Father's Day, also celebrates Parents Day? Each year on the 4th Sunday in July, this fairly young holiday (it was signed into law in 1994 by President Clinton) highlights the idea of parenting and the importance of parents, rather than just celebrating the contributions of a particular parent as Mother's Day or Father's Day do.
This year, Parents' Day falls on Sunday, July 25th - that's just 3 days away!
Parents Day is championed by the Parents' Day Council in the US. The Parents' Day Council identifies numerous "Parents of the Year" in various cities and states, and even chooses a family to highlight for being "Parents of the Year" on a national level. For Parents Day 2010, it doesn't look like the Parents' Day Council has yet named their "Parents of the Year", but you may want to check their website for profiles on those who've won the honor in prior years.
An obvious question (at least to me!) is how a family might choose to celebrate Parents' Day, since at Mother's Day or Father's Day the 'other' parent usually helps make preparations.
Here are a few ideas for kids (young or old) looking to celebrate Parents Day in 2010...

I went to the flower fields in Carlsbad , CA with another photographer.
If you're visiting Southern California in April or May, this is a wonderful place to explore. They plant the fields in rainbow rows of ranunculus.
The last section, nearest the entrance blooms last, just in time for Mother's Day.
They are located directly behind the Carlsbad Outlet mall, and adds another fun dimension to your trip there if you want to stay more than one day.
This is their website for more information including their address and phone number.

We're so excited to announce our partnership with musician Faith Hill as we debut a new line of bouquets - The Collection by Faith Hill, flowers inspired by her style and taste. The Collection features 6 brand new floral designs including "The Valentine's Bouquet." Each of these romantic flower arrangements evokes Faith’s elegance and will make the perfect statement this Valentine's Day.
Faith will also be starring in our third ever Super Bowl commercial, set to air during the second quarter of Super Bowl XLV on Sunday, February 6th on FOX. We'll be updating our Teleflora Facebook page with behind-the-scenes footage from this hilarious commercial, in which Faith coaches a young recording studio technician who is sending Valentine's flowers to his girlfriend.
The Valentine's Bouquet by Teleflora from The Collection by Faith Hill
"It's been a lot of fun designing a line of hand-arranged bouquets with Teleflora," said Faith Hill. "They're a great company that takes pride in their products, their flowers – and in their commercials. I can't think of any better way to be able to kick-off this partnership than with an ad during the Super Bowl." Read more about the collection in our official press release or shop our Valentine's Day flowers.
Faith Hill is an accomplished musical artist and a five-time Grammy Award winner. She is very excited about this project, and we're proud to partner with her as well. A celebrated entertainer, as well as devoted wife and mother, Faith is a great fit for our brand.
We'll continue to work with Faith throughout the year and add more bouquets to this exciting collection. There will be designs for holidays including Mother's Day and Christmas, as well as everyday flower arrangements, perfect for birthdays and anniversaries.

The dogwood tree brings back the Spring in my childhood memories. I found this tree in my parent's front yard in NC, while we were visiting family for Spring Break. I have long associated dogwoods with Easter. The four petals represent the cross, the marks on the petals, represent the nails into Christ's body. It's a wonderful reminder of the true meaning of Easter, and a gorgeous floral Spring tree.
