Mother’s
Day
Mother’s
Day is celebrated the second Sunday of May in the United States. What does it mean? Mom’s receive personalized crafts from their
school aged children, cards from their friends, gifts from their husbands, and
breakfast in bed from their kids!
Seriously
though, what is all about? The bond
between mother and child has been the subject of study for as long as people
have witnessed the nurturing relationship and the effects it has on individuals
from infancy, all the way through their adult lives. The people we become as adults will be
credited to the work and efforts of our mothers!
For
all the love she has poured out for you day after day, hour after hour, once a
year Mother’s are recognized for the super heroes they really are.
It
is only by love that mother’s are able to conjure up the strength it takes to
develop a fetus and carry him/her around for months, allowing that developing
baby to grow from her strength and nourishment.
That love will get a mother through the most complicated delivery, and
still be able to hold and smile at her newborn.
For all the years of her child’s life, a mother will devote her first
and her all through that unconditional love; a love beyond the understanding
and logic of any human.
In
1914, President Woodrow Wilson made an official national holiday celebrating
mothers after the enthusiastic promotion at the local level by Anna Jarvis of
West Virginia, who enlisted wealthy Philadelphia merchant John Wanamaker to
generate more support for the celebration of all mothers.
There
is no measure we can take to give back accordingly to our Mommy-Heroes, none
the less, we should never forget to thank them specifically on Mother’s Day.
