Mother's day

Last week, I joked about the things that you ask your mom for when you are a kid, versus asking your dad -- and it ended up being pretty funny. But, as Mother's Day approaches this weekend, your mom really is your biggest fan, supporter, friend, helper...really, I could go on for days, but you get what I'm saying.

This is so true.

A Boston agency put out a job posting with some pretty ridiculous requirements and to top it all off the salary...was $0. Other requirements included a background in medicine, culinary arts and finance. Very little sleep, no vacation time and constant standing...

So her parents were (and still are) a huge part of her success. Not only did they travel with her to be at her shows, but they were the ones who booked them!

Is it easier to find a gift for Mother’s Day or Father’s Day?

Congrats to Katie Myers for winning today's Mother's Day Confession! She wins a gift pack from Faery’s Nursery --- your Mother's Day headquarters.

Mother’s Day is coming up this Sunday. In this country it’s always observed on the second Sunday in May. It was back in the late 1800s when Julia Ward Howe came up with the idea for what she called a “Mother’s Day for Peace” in honor of all mothers. It was mostly a regional thing. Some parts of the country and some states began to adopt it, but it wasn’t until 1908 when Anna Jarvis of Grafton, Wes
