In United States, mothers day was first celebrated in the late 19th and early 20th century. The best mothers day idea is to ensure that your mother feels as special as she is to you and that you express your gratitude and love for everything that she has done for you and the fact that you are here today because of her. If we were to look at why this day was very important when it was first announced as a public event, we can see that the reason was the ignorance of many people in not recognizing their mothers toil. If you really do not know how to write a good one, theres always the internet. Most bookstores and department stores have stocks of Hallmark greeting cards so it would be easy for you to find something that will suit your needs.

2007 Mothers Day Marks 99 Years of Honor


Although the 2007 Mothers Day marks the 93rd year of it being a national holiday, the first Mothers Day was marked in Grafton, West Virginia in 1908. It was in May, 1914 when President Woodrow Wilson made the declaration of Mothers Day to honor all moms, living and dead.

One of the countrys first peace activists, Julia Ward Howe wrote the Mothers Day Proclamation in 1870, suggesting that June 2 be set aside as a day to honor all mothers. Julia Howe became more famous for a song she penned, Battle Hymn of the Republic. She spearheaded a celebration termed Mothers Day of Peace in Boston on the second Sunday in June for a number of years. It is now celebrated the second Sunday in May, which in 2007 Mothers Day will be on the 13th.

In 2007 Mothers Day will be celebrated in a number of countries, many with more importance placed on spoiling moms with leisure time and gifts, but in some countries, it is more of a personal celebration than a commercialized one. Many countries, in the beginning, used the day to show reverence to their mothers and in Britain, people were to travel back to their mother church on the day, bringing the family together at least once each year.

Commerce Has Taken Over Celebration

The 2007 Mothers Day is expected to repeat previous years in being the day that ties up phone lines all over the country. Although, with so many cell phones in use, land lines may not be as busy as in the past, but it will still be the one day of the year when the most calls are being made.

The sale of flowers and cards will also mark 2007 Mothers Day holiday, as more cards are given on Mothers Day than any other holiday. Flower sales will also go through the roof as husbands not only honor their mothers, but their wives as well, as being the mother of their children.

Restaurants also see a surge in business and the 2007 Mothers Day is not expected to be any different. While dad and the children may make mom breakfast in bed on Mothers Day, there are not many who want to tackle cooking a full meal when it is easier, and usually better, to take mom and grandma out to a fine restaurant on that day.
