Mother’s Day is a time set aside
to specially honor Mom. Mother’s
Day is very special and is officially
observed each year on the second
Sunday in May. We take this
opportunity to honor Mothers and
Grandmothers, without whom
we would not be the adults that
we have become without their
nurturing, friendship and guidance.
Moms are caregivers, cheerleaders,
counselors, nutritionists and
so much more. Be sure to do
something special for your Mom
this Mother’s Day. There are lots of
fun ways to celebrate this special
day. Planning ahead helps make
the occasion delightful, fun and
relaxing. Whether cooking a meal at
home or setting up an extravagant
weekend itinerary, you’ll benefit
from having a checklist of important
points to have covered in advance:
tickets, reservations, what to buy,
and so on..
HERE ARE SOME IDEAS FOR PLANNING YOUR
MOM’S FABULOUS WEEKEND. REMEMBER,
TOO, THAT YOU CAN ALWAYS MAKE UP YOUR
OWN! MAKE THIS MOTHER’S DAY ONE TO BE
.REMEMBERED BY MOM FOR YEARS COME
1 SPEND THE DAY AT
A PAINT-YOUR-OWN
POTTERY STORE
Devote a whole day painting mugs with
Mom. Once the store has fired them,
give Mom the set.
2 POSE FOR A FAMILY
PORTRAIT
Whether you break out the digital camera or hire a professional photographer, Mom will appreciate the reminder
of her special day. Present the photo to
her in a nice frame.
3 MOTHER’S DAY
WEEKEND TRIP
Think about splurging for Mom on
Mother’s Day? An exciting weekend
getaway will let her know just how
much you care for her comfort.
4 MOTHER’S DAY
PARTY
Thank your mom with a special party
that lets her know how much you appreciate her. It’s easy, just consider
Mom’s idea of a good time and plan
around that including activities, meals
and locations you know she’d enjoy.
5 PLAN A MOTHER’S
DAY WEEKEND
CRUISE
A weekend cruise can be an adventurous, unusual and relaxing Mother’s
Day getaway. Pack a luxurious cruise
experience into three days and enjoy
fine dining, exotic shows, and hours of
carefree relaxation, sunbathing, swimming and more. With a lot of distance
to cover and a limited amount of time,
the weekend cruise still can include
about two to three ports of call. Whether it’s the lush green islands of the Caribbean or a cobblestone port village
in Spain, the destinations are exhilarating. Remember to take Monday off
work in order to enjoy this 3-day getaway in full.
Call Today and allow A Spirit of Excellence to
plan that special treat for Mom. We provide
one stop shopping for many of your needs.
Let us arrange Mom’s weekend trip or cruise,
party, personalized gifts, flowers and much
more. We will add a ‘Touch of Elegance.’
A Mothers Love
A Mother‘s love is something
that no one can explain,
It is made of deep devotion
and of sacrifice and pain,
It is endless and unselfish
and enduring come what may
For nothing can destroy it
or take that love away
................
It is patient and forgiving
when all others are forsaking,
And it never fails or falters
even though the heart is
breaking
................
It believes beyond believing
when the world around
condemns,
And it glows with all the
beauty
of the rarest, brightest gems
................
It is far beyond defining,
it defies all explanation,
And it still remains a secret
like the mysteries of creation
................
A many splendoured miracle
man cannot understand
And another wondrous
evidence
of God‘s tender guiding hand.
