Show Mom Your Love And Appreciation With Flowers

by Trish



Gifts are our expression of love and appreciation.  Presenting someone with a gift means we care about them, and want to show them how much.  No matter what kind of gift is received, it should be accepted with thankfulness and grace, in the spirit in which it is given.  But when you see the person you are giving the gift to with their eyes lit up and then a smile breaks out across their face, you know you have hit the jackpot, and they love their gift.  Giving the gift of flowers is usually a guarantee that this will occur.


Flowers and Moms Equal Beauty and Love

Flowers are universal symbols of beauty, love, and warmth.  That is why they make such lovely and wonderful gifts.  Most women love gifts, and most women love flowers.  Putting the two together makes Mother’s Day the perfect occasion to have some delivered.

Florists Specialize In Flowers and Mother’s Day

Scheduling a delivery with your local florist is an easy way to accomplish your goal.  They specialize in flowers and Mother’s day, with product geared especially for the holiday.  Gorgeous flowers, keepsake collectible containers, lush blooming plants and gardens, delicious fruit and gourmet baskets, and fabulous gift baskets are just some of the offerings they have on hand.  Having to choose will probably be the hardest part of placing your order.  And they can even help you make your selection by giving you information about their specials and making suggestions within your budget. They can even help you figure out what to have written on your enclosure card.

Favorites Can Be Accommodated With Style

If your mother has a favorite color or flower, tell them.  They can feature her favorite flower in an arrangement, such as a vase overflowing with lilies, or design a bouquet with flowers that are all her favorite color, perhaps in every shade of pink.  You can also just simply leave it up to the floral designer, and let them create a unique piece with their picks of the nicest, freshest flowers they have on hand.  These one of a kind creations are often the ones people love to receive the most, as they are lovely, living, works of art.

Conclusion

Flowers best express our love and appreciation for our moms and all they have done for us.  Sending them something that will warm their heart and make them smile is the least we can do for them.

More house guests? Again? Ahhhhh!

by The Diva

A simple question – do you love it or do you hate it when the in-laws call at the last minute and say they are coming for a visit? Oh and by visit I mean, they plan to come for the day but end up staying overnight.

Why am I asking? Well … it seems that my in-laws are coming for visits more and more frequently and because they’re older they get tired and don’t always (read almost never) feel up to driving the hour and a half home again come evening so they become weekend guests.

I guess if I had more notice I might not mind so much, but often they call only the day of or the evening before their visit. So if the house isn’t clean or if I’m not feeling all that well I don’t have much time to prepare.

I just found that my in-laws are coming for a visit tomorrow. They’re packing in a full day of shopping, visiting two other relatives and then getting together with my husband and I so unless they’re full of energy tomorrow I can almost guarantee that they’ll end up staying overnight. Oh and when they come for a visit it’s not just my mother in law and father in law, it’s my husbands aunt as well … so both of our spare bedrooms get used and they take over the house, the fridge (with their shopping items) and move our things around … things that we use daily or even hourly! Grrrr

I guess that if they didn’t totally take over my home and basically turn my life upside down I wouldn’t mind so much, but that’s just not the case!

Oh and my brother was just visiting from Vancouver for the last week. He only left yesterday … and even though he’s the best house guest anyone could ask for .. I’m certainly not looking forward to having more house guests again so soon! I’d rather immerse myself in a search for good rates on term life insurance or the best cat litter than have another house guest right now. LOL

So back to my question – do you love it or hate when the in-laws come for a visit – especially a very short notice or no notice visit? I suspect that after reading this you’ll be able to guess what my answer is!

Great Ways to Save A Marriage And Live A Happy Married Life

by The Diva

How To Stop My Divorce

In this post I’m going to share 5 tips to save a marriage. Marriage is one of the happiest and memorable times in our lives. It is a union of not only two individuals, but also of two different upbringings or cultures. After a wonderful start of married life, there might be a possibility or beginning of some conflicts. These conflicts may be due to some misunderstandings, ego or any other personal problems. Sometimes the bitterness in relationships crosses the tolerance level that the couples think of getting separated.

However, a divorce affects the personal and social lives of both partners. You will be surprised to know that your marriage problems can be fixed. Here are 5 great ways to save a marriage that can be effectively implemented in your married life.

The first step to resolve the marriage problems is to agree that these problems exist. You should be honest with yourself, you should be able to identify the differences in your relationships and try to improve them. If you try to go away from the problems, they will never be solved. Accept the situation as it is and be prepared for the challenges that you may come across.

Keep in mind that you can’t fight a problem that you can’t see. This philosophy is definitely true in case of marriages. If you notice that your husband has changed the way of interaction, then find out why. The best solution is to start the conversation with your spouse and give him several chances to ‘open up’. Don’t forget to keep your ears and mind open for the subtle hints from his conversation.

Saving a marriage is not merely solving the problems. Reigniting your love for each other is one of the effective 5 tips to save a marriage. You could also express your passion for your partner with special dates or surprises. Remember the most romantic times you spent together and simply recreate them with an addition of a unique approach.

Give some time for each other to share the feelings. The purpose is to grab the attention of your partner and make your relationships healthy with natural attraction. If you are successful in bringing back the passion for each other, then other problems can be immediately solved.

There may be a lot of obstacles when you are trying to fix the relationships. It might be difficult for you to talk to your husband or you may be facing outside pressures from the family which may prevent you to focus on your goals. Even after facing these barriers, you should be persistent on your goals. If one approach fails, you can try another approach that may work. You should be able to handle these conflicts safely.

One of the most important steps among 5 tips to save a marriage is to seek the right advice from your friends and family. You should try to get an expert advice from counseling sessions or books before you take any major decisions. A wise advice can save a marriage, while bad advice may ruin it.

Knowing about 5 ways to save a marriage, you would be able to resolve the problems if any in your marriage and live a happy married life.
