It's National Grandparents Day! The holiday falls each year on the first Sunday after Labor Day. It was initiated at the grassroots level by West Virginian Marian Lucille Herndon McQuade (seen in the image atop this entry) with the behind-the-scenes support of her husband Joseph L. McQuade.
This photograph is from a web-page, which discusses a number of interesting facts regarding National Grandparents Day; including the truism that "it's not a holiday invented to sell cards and flowers."
