Mothers Day!!!

It's mothers day in the UK this Sunday. What really is mothers day? It is a day of honoring mothers. Motherhood and maternal bonds are generally recognized. It dates back to the ancient Greek who celebrated mothers day in honor of Rhea the mother of many gods and goddesses in Greek mythology. In 1914 (May 8th) the then US president Woodrow Wilson signed the resolution.
Mothers day has come to stay and different christian denominations have chosen different days to mark this special day.
Mothers day is characterised by gifts of all sorts to make mothers around us feel loved.
I love my Mum dearly and i am sure a lot of us do. Let's use this period to appreciate them.
Lets hear some memorable stories about you and Mom.
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL MOTHERS OUT THERE!!!!

  The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.

Valentines day has come and gone. What next?  There is the Easter holidays, which is also a time for gift giving and of course weddings. This season pastel colors are in, we should enjoy all the cool colors that characterize this season.
Here are a few suggestions:
*If it is a wedding start early!

*Honeymoon? Sandals and beaches is the romantic place to go. Book early for the all inclusive holiday.

*Favors? There is a wide selection. The favors should go with the whole theme of the wedding.

*The corporate world is not left out. There is always a reason to say "Thank You"

I always recommend gift baskets. It is always welcome, irrespective of the season.

While we prepare for the next holiday keep on keeping on!!!!
