Happy Mother's Day!




Sunday is Mother's Day. Mother's Day has been celebrated on the second Sunday in May in the United States and in many other nations for almost 100 years. President Woodrow Wilson singed the legislation creating Mother's Day as a holiday in 1912.

For many people, myself included, moms have had a profound influence on making our lives better. Personally speaking, I will never be able to fully comprehend all my mom has done for me, including standing by me during some really tough times.

What do think of the holiday? What will you do to celebrate? Me, I will send a gift card to my mom's favorite theater and a card. Of course, I also call her.

Tell us what you think of the holiday. Do you have big plans for your mom? Treat her well! She deserves it!

Here are a couple of videos that you might enjoy. What do you think of them?

Well, I don't really have anything planned for Mother's day yet. My dad will probably wake up super early and go get me a card to give my mom and we might go out to eat or something? My mama is a brat sometimes, but she's pretty much like my best friend. I know she'll never stab me in the back.

I think Mothers Day is a good idea for a holiday, just to spend time with your mother and show her how much she really is appreciated. My plans for Mothers Day is just to spend time with my mom. The vidoes that you had us watch are cute. I like the mother version of it better than the teenager one.

I love my mom and everything she has done for me. We have spent many fun times together. I also think the mom video was really cool. I don't think i could remember all of those lines though. The song was a little weird though.

I like Mother's day I think that it is a really nice day to thank your mom. I plan on getting my mom a card and hopefully some flowers. I love to celebrate it and I get my mom something special every year. Also I might take her out to eat for a special dinner.

I love my mother highly, she has been the role model of my life to which I have based all of my life's success on. She is the best mother in the world in my opinion and she deserves a holiday more than Santa Clause or the Easter Bunny combined. I love her forever, she is the greatest.

Unknown said...

The videos were pretty good. I don't find the hilarious, however. I love my mom. She goes out of her way to make me happy. I am her only daughter, I guess you could say we have that unconditional love. Happy Mother's Day, Mom. =]

My mom is my best friend. She has been there for me my whole life, not only as my support system but as someone I can talk to about anything, or come to her with any problem and she can help me solve it. I think mothers day is a great holiday, and I will be taking my mom out to lunch somewhere and buying her flowers and a necklace. I love my mom for everything she has done for me! I hope to be half the woman she is whenever i'm a mother.

I'm glad we have a Mother's day. It gives us a chance to show our moms how much we appreciate them and all the things they've done for us. I love my mom more than anyone. She is't around a lot but i knew she would be if she could. through all the long distance phone calls and arguments over how much better i could be doing in school i know she cares. she won't be here this weekend but when she gets back me and my brother are going to take her to her favorite seafood resturaunt near the beach :)

Unknown said...

my mother is the best mom i can ever had she always made sure i hade things i needed and just showed me wrong from right and for that i thank her for her for that i would always love her.

specter said...

I think moms are nice. They are always there for you.i think the holiday is kinda like a day of for moms. breakfast in bed is what we usually do for her.

Darion said...

The videos were pretty funny. I don't have anything planned for my mom or grandma. I know I'll get them both a card, but other than that I don't know.

Kyle said...

My mom is awesome. We get into arguments sometimes but never really bad ones. I appreciate everything she does and I think the holiday is a great time for everyone to thank there moms for everything they do.

Mary said...

I like this holiday it lets mothers know that they are loved and appreciated. My mom, Grandma, and I are all going out to eat Sunday for Mother's Day. The videos were entertaining, the first one I know my mom has said some of that before, as for the other one it was entertaining, but I don't think it's as pertaining to me.

Liv said...

I think this is a great way to honor all of our moms. I will be making my mom a card and my dad and I will probably make her breakfast. I liked the first video better than the first.

My mom is a very caring woman, sometimes she takes the caring too far. I always will love her though, as of plans for MOther's Day im not sure I have anything because unfortunately she has to work. :( I wanted to take her out to dinner but she doesn't want to pay for it so oh well.

cole said...

Well my mother’s day will be ok I guess we will probably go out to eat with my grandma. I like the holiday it gives us time to thank our moms. I think they should have a son/daughter day.

Unknown said...

Me and my family have always celebrated mothers day beacuse my mom is basicly like a super hero without a cape or secret identity she has always ben there when i needed her even when i didnt know i needed her. but about the video it could be like that for alot of moms and their familys but you have to remember every family is different.

Kianna said...

I think it is wonderful that there is a whole day dedicated to mothers. Even though they deserve way more.For Mother's Day i will go to church with my mother, and out to eat with her and my grandmother. I wish I could give them a lot more.But love is the biggest gift of all. :)

lisa said...

No i do not have plans for my mother. Its just another day to me but I do respect her and try to treat her with all the respect I can give her on Mother Day. I think this day is very special cause some people moms is the dad and mom so they need this break on Mothers Day and be treated well. I LOVE MY MOMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

jeff said...

I think this is the mom's day off. I have to work this mother's day so we wont hang out. But I guess mother's day is pretty awesome.

Allen said...

I honestly don't know what my family is doing for my mom on mothers day. I need to find money to buy my mother a mothers day present though. I honestly do love my mom but the decisions she has made have made our family become a giant mess and everyone has an attitude lately.

Unknown said...

My mom is okay at sometimes I mean I love her and all but she can be mean.
But they love us and try to keep us out trouble. So mom I love a lot but can you be nicer. I think this holiday is a great way to appertain your mom.

Quintus said...

i think this is a good holiday. i will be celebrating with mom. my mom deserves mother's day for all the work she does

alexis said...

I think that mothers day is a great way to show your mom how much she means to you. It's a good way to show her how much you appreciated everything she does for you. Even though me and my mom fight, she has always been there for me! Specially when somehting is wrong or I just need to talk. :)

I think that Mother's Day would be fine if the country celebrated a day for kids or students.Theres Father's Day and Maother's Day but no day for kids like this. We are getting my mom a card and probably going out to dinner.
