Happy Mother’s Day to all of the wonderful Mom’s out there! Today is a day to celebrate these ladies and show some appreciation for things they have done as a Mom! Spend some time with your Mom giving her a helping hand today! Or bring that awesome Mom (send if you’re too far for a visit) a special gift just for her! Maybe even invite Mom out for lunch or dinner to give her a break! It doesn’t even have to be your own Mom and you can help any Mom out there feel special!
We have got some wonderful Boo-Shaw Bakery Cookies or Boo-Shaw Bakery Small Cakes you can choose to give to Mom or just enjoy with Mom when you visit. We also have a variety of Boo-Shaw Bakery gifts you can select from to give her. Does Mom Garden? Does she enjoy Game Night or Movie Night? We have baskets for all of these hobbies! Or, have you seen our Boo-Shaw Bakery “Thank you Mom” basket? There are many choices!
Do you know the history of this holiday? We looked up Mother’s Day on history.com and found some beautiful meanings and thoughts to remember, starting with:
The official Mother’s Day holiday arose in the 1900s as a result of the efforts of Anna Jarvis, daughter of Ann Reeves Jarvis. Following her mother’s 1905 death, Anna Jarvis conceived of Mother’s Day as a way of honoring the sacrifices mothers made for their children. . . .
By 1912 many states, towns and churches had adopted Mother’s Day as an annual holiday, and Jarvis had established the Mother’s Day International Association to help promote her cause. Her persistence paid off in 1914 when President Woodrow Wilson signed a measure officially establishing the second Sunday in May as Mother’s Day. . . .
So go out there and buy Mom a card or special gift. Or just make her a special card and share your thoughts and appreciation. Or just show up at her house and ask if she needs help with a project! We all deserve a special day sometimes – this one’s for MOM!
