National Girlfriends Day

Aug. 1 is National Girlfriends Day, an annual event that celebrates and honors those very special ladies in your life. While the origins of the annual holiday are unknown, this special occasion, also referred to as Girlfriends Day, could be celebrated two ways. Whether it’s one or two of your favorite BFFs or that special gal you love, today is all about those fabulous gal pals who make life so much more fun and enjoyable.

Have you ever wondered what life would be like without that very special lady in your life? Today celebrates that amazing sister, mother, daughter, classmate, co-worker or neighbor that has touched your heart and your life like no one else. Whether you’ve known her all your life or only a few years, a girlfriend is an encourager, confidant, coach and cheerleader all wrapped up in one beautiful package. And despite the fact she knows all your deepest, darkest secrets, she remains fiercely loyal and rarely judges. That one-in-a-million gal loves you no matter what you look like and what your mood happens to be at the moment. Tell her how special she is to you today!

Happy National Girlfriends Day, ladies!
