Mothers Day sending flowers Cardiff

SENDING FLOWERS TO YOUR MOTHER FOR SUNDAY 14th is a click away

Some info on Mothers day…… The modern Mother’s Day is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, often in May, as a day to honour mothers and motherhood. In some countries, it follows the old traditions of Mothering Sunday. Father’s Day is a corresponding holiday honoring fathers.

Sending flowers on Mothers Day

The ancient Romans also had another holiday, Matronalia, that was dedicated to Juno, though mothers were usually given gifts on this day.
In Europe and the UK there were several long standing traditions where a specific Sunday was set aside to honor motherhood and mothers such as Mothering Sunday. Mothering Sunday celebrations are part of the liturgical calendar in several Christian denominations, including Anglicans, and in the Catholic calendar is marked as Laetare Sunday, the fourth Sunday in Lent to honour the Virgin Mary and the “mother church”. Traditionally the day was marked by the giving of token gifts and the relinquishing of certain traditionally female tasks such as cooking and cleaning to other members of the family as a gesture of appreciation.

Flowers Valentines Day

It was a Frenchman, Charles, Duke of Orleans who is credited with the Valentine.
During a battle in 1415 he was captured by the English. On Valentine’s Day he sent his wife a rhyming love letter from the tower of London, where he was imprisoned. There are some ideas as to where or how the celebration of Valentine’s Day began.

The Christian Church supposedly had two Saints named Valentine and two other ideas centre around them. The Roman Emperor, Claudius the II forbade young men to marry in 200 A.D. He believed single men made better soldiers, free of family concerns. A priest named Valentine disobeyed the Emperor and married couples in secret. The next Saint Valentine was a lover of children but, was imprisoned when he would not honor other gods. The children missed him and wrote messages of affection to him. They threw their notes through the bars of his cell. This may have been the beginning of exchanging messages. He was executed on February 14, 269 A.D. Pope Gelasius in 496 A.D. named February 14th, Valentine’s Day, after him. The fourth idea concerning the celebration of Valentine’s Day is based on the belief that birds or fowl pick their mates on February 14th. It was believed love birds in particular, chose this day to begin mating.

The modern day celebration of Valentine’s Day seems to have begun in France and England. On Valentines Eve young people would gather and pick names becoming a valentine to whose ever name they chose.
Cupid, Doves, Love Birds, Roses, Hearts and Arrows are all symbols of the Valentine’s Day Holiday.
