What’s all this “Mother’s Day” business?
My family has always celebrated Mothering Sunday, a fine old tradition; what it’s NOT is a commercial occasion for the benefit of greeting card manufacturers and gift shops and anyone else who can climb on the bandwagon and part us from our cash.
I’m not suggesting that we don’t spend money on our Mothers, but let’s put the emphasis back on Mamma and not on Mammon!
