Happy Monday! 😀 It's PRESIDENTS DAY!!
On the third Monday in February, the United States celebrates the federal holiday known as Presidents Day. The day takes place during the birth month of the country's two most prominent presidents, George Washington 🍒and Abraham Lincoln🕯. While the day once only honored President George Washington on his birthday, February 22nd, the day now never lands on a single president's birthday.
