A Mother's Day ceremony

How often has your mother's day gift been a new dressing gown, slippers, some perfume or perhaps a dinner out somewhere?

Life is full of situations where we wished we had said how we felt, this Mother’s Day can provide you with a timely opportunity to actually say them to your mum.

Let this Mother’s Day be the time you tell your mum how much she means to you.

Giving a Mother’s Day ceremony as a gift will be more meaningful than a lunch out, new slippers, or yet another thing that your mother has. A Mother's Day ceremony is a gift of your thoughts and feelings about her. These gifts are timeless and your appreciation can never be said too often. Your mother’s greatest gift to you was life, and a ceremony acknowledges and thanks her for this gift. This special day is good because it can be uncomfortable to say those things just out of the blue, but during a Mother’s Day ceremony you can say them with the help and support of others.

It is a something she will always remember, far longer than the lunch or slippers.

It can be a gift from the whole family and close friends and relatives can attend. The ceremony gives everyone a chance to think about their mother and grandmother; what they have learnt from them, the the gifts of life skills and wisdom their mother's and grandmother's passed onto them.

A Mothers Day ceremony is a way of celebrating that special bond that exists between mother and child - a love that really isn’t like anything else.

What would a ceremony entail? It could contain speeches of love, music, ceremony, performances by grandchildren, giving of symbolic gifts, stories of shared history, remembering those not with you, absent grandmother’s and other family matriarchs.
