Take this opportunity to show your sis just how much you care. This August holiday is celebrated on the first Sunday of the month and isn't just for blood relatives.

Sorry boys, you're going to have to wait 'til next May to celebrate Brother's Day.Middle Child's Day: August 12th
Ever feel like you've been left out or your other siblings get all the attention from the 'rents? Feel like you're stuck in an episode of Malcom in the Middle?

Be sure to write it on the calendar in the kitchen so they don't forget your special day - like they did with your birthday last year.Left Hander's Day: August 13th
