In what was formerly Yugoslavia, children would tie up their mother on Mother’s Day. The only way she could be freed would be to “pay” her children with candy and treats.
In its early days, people observed Mother's Day by going to church, and by writing letters to their mothers. Eventually, sending cards and giving gifts and flowers were added to the tradition.
Pink and red carnations are given to mother’s that are still alive, while white ones are for those that have passed away.
In the United States alone, around 122 million phone calls are made to moms on Mother’s Day.
Maybe taking Mom out is more your style. Take her somewhere special this year like a Mother's Day Brunch and Wine Tasting or a relaxing Spa Treatment. Whatever it is make her feel like the Queen she is!!
