A good day for Mums

Today is Mothers Day, and in years past, this was a day to celebrate motherhood (and all that implies). A day simply to remind us to say 'thank you' to our mums.

As with all special days found on our calendar, it has now become a mixture of rampant consumerism and commercially driven guilt. Bigger is better, the larger and more expensive present seems to be what is important.

I think that for most mums what they really want is someone to genuinely and sincerely say 'I love you', once in a while.........

.........and maybe not just on Mothers Day.
