The History of Mother's Day

">



This is a 4 1/2 minute video on the history of Mother's Day and how relevant it still is in today's world. I never knew this story before, but it certainly takes the meaning of Mother's Day away from the commercial Hallmark holiday it has become. I honored my Mother this year by sponsoring a nanny for one month at one of the Half The Sky orphanages in China. I can only hope and pray that Mary Alice is blessed to be a part of one of these facilities. My Mom has always been a supporter of children's rights and welfare, so I thought this was right up her alley. There is a link on the side-bar that will take you to the Half The Sky website if you are interested in learning more about this organization.
