In the United States the second Sunday in May is Mother’s Day. Usually I post on that day with a celebration of my own mom, but that does you, the reader, little good if you have not prepared. So this is a friendly and helpful reminder to get your card in the mail or order your delivered gifts of flowers or candy a full week in advance. This prompt is mainly for people of the male persuasion, as we tend to be the primary forgetters. So take this opportunity to get your act together. This also serves as notice that, this year anyway, to my own mom, that the card is in the mail.
