Celebrate the special bond between sisters on National Sisters Day, which falls on the first Sunday of August each year. The day was created to honor the unique relationship shared by siblings and has been celebrated since 1993. It's an opportunity to show your sister just how much you love and appreciate her, with thoughtful gestures or simply sharing a laugh together. Whether you are lucky enough to have a biological sister, or someone that you consider a sister from another mister, don't forget to take time out of this special day to recognize just how important she is in your life!
