Mother’s Favorite
This weekend, if you didn’t already know, is Mother’s Day.
It was founded in this country in 1908. And officially recognized in America in 1914 as the 2nd Sunday of May.
While celebrations of motherhood are derived from ancient Greek and Roman festivals for mothers and goddesses, modern celebrations are increasingly commercialized. It was estimated that $35 Billion was spent in 2025 for Mother’s Day. Most of the money was used to buy flowers with greeting cards coming in second. In addition, the day doubles as the busiest day of the year to eat out and for phone calls.
Because our mother’s favorite color is blue, mom this post is for you!
Happy Mother’s Day.
