JOCELYN: #1--good, #2--that's a dependent clause with faulty punctuation, #3--good.
ROBERT: #1--check the punctuation, #2--that's another phrase; #3-yes, but can you check for missing apostrophes?
#2 Independent

For the first time this year, I will celebrate Father’s day because the whole family will be together including my father.
3. Independent clause.

JOCELYN:That's an independent clause;-)
VIVIEN: #1--meaning is unclear--it only comes once a year--would a comma help? #2--yes, but that comma after the phrase is not right; #3--You need to add an independent clause not a separate sentence;-)
