Mother’s Day is May 14th, 2006
This is just a friendly reminder to all you procrastinators out there: Mother’s Day is May 14th, 2006. If you read this and you don’t get your mama something special, well, shame on you!
I know that these days seem to only boost the bottom line for Hallmark and all the flower stands in your neighborhood. Only on Mother’s Day and Valentine’s Day can you find some ridiculously priced gifts, but you can also find some bargains if you look hard enough. Think about this – think about all the things your mother has done for you. Uh huh. Now, start making that list of mothers day gifts. Flowers should be only the beginning of your expenditures. Add some candy, a nice hat, a beautiful blouse, and you’re in business.
Many would argue that they just don’t have the money to spend. That may be true, but here’s your chance to show your creative side. Does your mum need her car washed? Wouldn’t your mama be happy if you cooked her a nice meal or took her to a movie or for a walk? It’s the thought that counts. A lot of folks don’t exactly get along with their mothers. Might be a good day to put your differences aside, if you can. Before I start sounding too preachy, just know that life is very short, and I’ll leave it at that.
Well just get ready because before you can recover from mother’s day, father’s day and graduation day will be here. Any way you look at it, it’s still about celebrating the people that you love, and to me there’s nothing better.
