p
I amrille. I -have one. All
of youlMher have or had
one. One day my daughters
may be one. I know my
husband and son can never
be one. Some famous ones
are Queen Elizabeth (11
not I), .Flzire Dionne, and
Whistler's. Of course, with
the second Sunday in May
fast approaching, I am talking about mothers, and the special
day set aside to honour them this year, May 10.
In our home we never had a great many traditions associated .
with Mother's Day. No breakfast in bed, or anything like that,
there was always some small gift for mom and we all tried at
least for that one day not to fight with each other quite as
muchras we normally did. I can remember though, going out to
the garden before church to pick a coloured flower to wear on
my coat, it had to be a coloured one because my mother was
alive, white would have meant she wasn't.
In England and in many other countries, a day was always
set-aside in the church for honouring mothers. It came during
mid Lent and was called Mothering Sunday. •
In 1872, it was suggested that in the United States June 2 be
set aside as Mother's Day, a day dedicated to peace. For sever-
al years on this day in Boston annual peace meetings were
held. There were other attempts at celebrating Mother's Day,
but it wasn't until 1912 that the Methodist Episcopal Church
Conference passed a resolution that Mother's Day be celebrat-
ed the second Sunday in May, and that there was any official
recognition. In 1915, Woodrow Wilson, the President of the
United States, proclaimed Mother's Day as a day ofannual ob-
servance.
Canada ttoon fdliowed suit and today Mother's Day is ob-
served in many different countries in the world.
Here is a simple:repipe that even:ihechildren can prepare if
they wanuo•give mom aholidayfrom the kitchen.
