Time Marches on Mother's Day 2010

If you have been watching the calendar you know that Mother’s day is right around the corner.  Mother's Day is this Sunday , May 9th, 2010, which means that you still have time to find the most wonderful gift for Mom. Perhaps you are looking to buying for your wife if you have children that most wonderful  gift to thank her for being such a grand Mother.

The origin of Mother’s day goes back to 1907 when  Anna M. Jarvis, a Philadelphia school teacher (1864-1948), began a movement to set up a national Mother's Day in admiration of her mother, Ann Maria Reeves Jarvis. She requested the help of hundreds of legislators and renowned businessmen to create a special day to honor all mothers. The first Mother's Day observance was a church service honoring Anna's mother. Anna handed out her mother's favorite flowers, the white carnations, on the occasion as they signify sweetness, purity, and patience. Anna's hard work over time paid off in the year 1914, when President Woodrow Wilson announced the second Sunday in May as a national holiday in honor of mothers.
This year is expected to be the largest in terms of those wanting to shop online for mothers day. Scores of people live a great distance from their mother so shopping online makes perfect sense. Another reason is the selection is ideal and the ease is hard to beat.


Research in 2006 concluded that 35% of the adult population chose chocolates and spa bath products to send to their mothers for Mothers Day as the most popular gift, above flowers and plants, by some margin. I think that is has to do with the people being more practical and the desire to give mom something that will last and that gives her some additional pleasure. There are some superb? dark chocolates and healthy snack out there that don’t come with too many calories and contain some further  health benefits.
