In honor of the best mother that ever lived, your mother

This slogan was adopted in Binghamton, New York in 1912 in an effort to make Mother’s Day a city wide celebration.  Many organizations set up flower stands along the streets selling white and red carnations (the official flower for this special day). In 1914 President Woodrow Wilson signed a declaration making Mother’s Day a National Holiday! Today over 40 countries celebrate Mother’s Day.  Happy Mother’s Day !!
