The Quick Guide To Mother’s Day Flowers

Sunday, June 13th, 2010

Because the Mothers Day comes only once a year, we all want to make it right. And this year you have decided on flowers, so what do you do next?

You could of course go to the local gas station and grab the first flowers you see, you will probably not make your mother happy. Instead you should take some time to find a better option. The best option is the florist, if your mother lives locally.

It might seems like a scary project (especially if you are a man), but you can have good advices on choosing flowers and see them before buying. And it is the best choice (expect for delivering them yourself), because local delivery is normally more reliable.

The distance options come down to ordering by telephone or over the net. Here you have to be careful, have a clear idea of what you’re looking for, the type of flowers and the amount of money you want to spend. Look for companies that offer guarantees, then if it all does go wrong at least you have some means of claiming recompense.

The History of Mother’s Day

Friday, April 10th, 2009

Different countries celebrate Mother’s Day on different days, because this day has a number of different origins. Some sources say that this day comes from a custom of mother worship in ancient Greece.

The ancient Romans also had a holiday, called Matronalia, and during this day mothers received gifts. Besides the Mother’s Day, in many countries International Women’s Day is celebrated on March 8th.

The author of modern Mother’s Day holiday is thought to be Anna Jarvis. In 1912 she trademarked phrases “second Sunday in May” and “Mother’s day”. She has also created the Mother’s Day International Association.

Anna Jarvis created this day to honor the mother, not mothers in general. Meaning, the day is dedicated for the mother of each person, and each person has to honor his own mother.

The day was not recognized as national holiday immediately. Anna Jarvis first held a memorial for her late mother in 1907. It was a private ceremony. Later she ran campaigns to make this day popular.

Mother’s Day became popular in 1910 when clothing merchant John Wanamaker financed the campaigns. The holiday spread as a day for mother appreciation. It was accepted as national holiday by US President Woodrow Wilson on May 14, 2009.

Last Chance Mother’s Day Ideas

Thursday, March 26th, 2009

When I was writing this post there’s less than a month left until the Mother’s Day and there’s still time to get the gift. But I realize it’s not gonna be long and many will find themselves not having gotten the present and the time inevitable coming. So below are some of the ideas for the last chance gift.

First of all you will always be able to get flowers, so do that. In addition you can get some expensive chocolate. Or alternatively you can get a fruit basket. It’s a simple gift but a good one nonetheless.

But for it to be a really good gift we need something personal. And for the sake of this post I want to introduce the idea of a card made of old photos that have a meaning to you and your mother. It’s similar to scrapbooking but needs you to spare much less time, which you don’t have when we’re talking about last chance gifts.

The most feasible idea to make such a card is to use a computer. If you have any graphic editing skills you can do that simply with a program like Photoshop. Or you can look for some e-card templates online. Then print it out and add it to you flowers or the basket.

The Meaning of Mother’s Day

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

Every year in May we dedicate one day of the year to our beloved person – our mom. We take the time to show our appreciation and our love. On this day when we pay all our attention to her, especially if we have forgotten to do that during the year.

It’s easy to forget our important people in the daily routine. We go fast to our jobs and back home and often we forget them. It is a great tradition to remember our mom at least that once in a year and let her know that we love her.

It is not with our gifts that we show that but by sharing our memories and emotions, paying her a visit and spending all day with her. This day has a deep meaning for her and for us. That is the time to refresh our connection.

Presents we give her, are the symbol of our attention, but they have to show our feelings. The gift is merely a token, but it must show the intent. Some people choose not to give presents at all, that way exposing their feelings instead.
