One of the first gifts we give to our mother is a simple flower picked from the garden. Isn’t it incredible that even at a young age we are attracted to the beauty in nature and instinctively want to share it with a beautiful figure in our lives.
With all the challenges and joys that come with having young children, walks outside often yield handfuls of flowers, leaves and twigs, all given with love to Mom and equally treasured and placed in jars around the house. How sweet is it that they will pick flowers as soon as they are able to. It portrays the simplest form of love and the simplest gift that nature gives us. Not always able to say their words, but they will give what they have – that is just the sweetest!
As we get older, the hand picked flowers and scribbled Mother’s Day messages may change. The fistful of backyard flowers may today be a beautiful hand picked arrangement of mom’s favourite flowers, but the sentiment is still the same – sharing the beauty of nature with a beautiful person in our life. Though the first radiant gesture of love will never be forgotten because “in that tiny hand, he held not just a dandelion – he held my heart”.
Mothers are the strongest people in our lives; like buttons that hold everything together. As every year before it, a bouquet of her favourite flowers has been the natural choice when gifting for Mother’s Day. But why not go a step beyond ‘picking’ flowers this year? Get your mother a more permanent reminder of the bond between you with a beautiful flower pendant that shares your story?
“The beauty of life is woven through every flower petal. To this day, whenever I see gladiolas, I think of my mom and smile, remembering a simpler time when nature nourished our bodies and flowers kindled our happy hearts” – SARAH
