Mother’s Day as we know it is a somewhat recent holiday, though it isn't a “Hallmark holiday” established to sell more cards. There are a number of Mothering day or Mother-focused holidays in history like Mothering Day in the UK, Cybele in ancient Greece, or Mothering Sunday in much of Europe. Mother’s Day was developed by Anna Jarvis in 1912. Mother’s day was specifically chosen to be a singular possessive meaning it was suitable for each family to respect their mother, not plural possessive that would be used to honor all the mothers of the world. Following congressional passage, It was officially established on May 9, 1914 when president Woodrow Wilson made the official statement proclaiming Mother’s day as a national holiday to be held on the 2nd Sunday of May. Mother’s Day has thereafter celebrated in many other countries and cultures. In many cases, the date was changed to fit existing celebrations or to complement with a significant date which are for the most part religious. Due to this fact, Mother’s Day is celebrated in February in Norway and on December 22nd in Indonesia, with other dates in between celebrated by other people. One of the traditions of Mother’s Day is to give your mom a gift along with positive wishes as a way to honor her. If you live nearby (and are visiting your mom regularly!) you most likely have a good idea what to buy her. Then again, those of us that don’t live close by can be at a complete loss. Consider the things Mom enjoys a perhaps send her a surprise with that concept. Gift baskets are excellent when it comes to gifts with a theme. If your mom enjoys golf there are golf themed baskets. Maybe she is into tea and relaxation then find a nice tea baskets or a relaxing spa basket. Maybe she loves fine wine and you know she enjoys red wine or white wine or even champagne. There are many great wine gift baskets to choose from that feature wine which would make a appropriate Mother's day basket. The alternatives are many and what a gift baskets does, is give you a nice selection of goodies that she will take pleasure in with the theme she will appreciate. Rather than sending clothes yet again this year, you could consider a Lavender Relaxing Bath Gift Basket . Our bath gift baskets for a woman will relax and impress that special woman. This jute and reed basket is filled with spa quality products including lavender shower gel, body scrub, lavender lotion, large nylon sponge, hand crafted bar of natural lavender soap, Two lavender votive candles and a glass candle holder, peppermint foot soak, lavender scented drawer sachet and a fun embroidered hand towel. Truly relaxing and fun....She'll love it! Another thing to think about here is the useful factor. What I mean by this is many of the gifts that you give your Mother are either unnecessary or something she will never us. So, consider something green, useful and best of all reusable. The green and reusable is the present holder which could be a reusable basket or perhaps a 100% recycled reusable shopping bag. The useful is the great gourmet foods or the high quality lotions and soaps in the basket. Why not send her something distinct and notable this Mother’s day! Even if you live far away or right down the street these gifts can be delivered. Happy Mother’s Day!
