History of Mothers day
Mothers day is celebrated to recognise the valuable contribution by mothers to the society. It is celebrated on the second Sunday of May in many countries like US, Australia, India, etc. It was started by Anna Jarvis to spend a day every year by bestowing attention to the mother in a family. U.S. President Woodrow Wilson passed the law making official the holiday on the U.S for Mothers day.
Mothers day celebrations
Basically the day is filled with what mothers are - love and more love! Although it is celebrated on different days in different parts of the world in different ways the spirit of the mothers day is common everywhere just as how love of a mother is. At Violet Indigo we have the top 5 things to do on Mothers day and we believe its just not about expensive gifts:
1. Mothers should have the day off. Yes thats right, rest of the family should start the breakfast preparation in the morning and give mom coffee in a personalised photo mug. Surprise her further by cleaning up the mess and doing the dishes. Cook a fab lunch for her and dont forget our personalised aprons with the slogans "worlds best mom". Do household chores and let mothers day be atleast one day of the year when the super mom is resting.
2. Spend some time in adding a touch of mommy love to the home decor. Our personalised cushion covers and personalised pillow cases, photo into artworks and mothers day poem framed are excellent ideas for mothers day gifts that actually are meaningful too.
3. Have some fun family time by playing games and organising activities with mom. This is the real fun with mothers day celebrations. Make her laugh and have fun with her. Our photo playing cards are the perfect fun yet so touching gift for this.
4. Take mother out and let her have some great time enjoying mothers day. Our personalised hand bags, wallets etc will add that extra personal touch to your time with mom on her day out this mothers day.
5. Finally before going to bed kiss mom good night and tell her how much she means to you and how much you value all that she has done for you. Tell her you wouldnt be what you are if not her - your wonderful mother. Throw in an added touch with a personalised pillow cover closing the most special day for the most special woman you have know in your life longer than any other woman.
Dont just forget it all until next mothers day. Celebrate motherhood every day by doing what you can do to make mom proud and happy.
