National Siblings Day (NSD) is celebrated on April 10 each year in the USA.It is the brainchild of Claudia A. Evart, who created it after the deaths of her brother and sister.She wanted a day for all Americans to think about the importance of the relationships they have with their brothers and sisters.She created a Siblings Day Foundation to establish this special day and has managed to get 40 state governors to declare Siblings Day in their states.More and more people are accepting NSD and it now has a “Special Mark” from the US Patent and Trademark Office.If it keeps growing in popularity, it could be up there on the holiday calendar with Mother’s Day and Father’s Day.Do you ever stop and think just how important your brothers and sisters are to you?Do you ever wonder what life would be like without a brother or sister, to be an only child?Our siblings are quite often the people with whom we have the longest relations.More often than not, we are together in infancy, play together, grow up together and grow old together.We share a million experiences, joys and disappointments.We often rely on them when we are in deepest need and celebrate with them our greatest achievements.Our brothers and sisters are perhaps the people who understand and trust us best.
