Mother Does Yoga
When kids get hungry, they get hungry. So when this kid
sees an opportunity to grab a quick drink while his Mom's
doing some yoga in the living room, he takes it.

President Woodrow Wilson helped celebrate the first
national Mother's Day in 1914. As the holiday became more
commercialized, Anna Jarvis filed a lawsuit in Pennsylvannia
to try to stop the commercialization. She failed.
***
The official flower for Mother's Day is the carnation. Red
carnations are for mothers still living, while white
carnations are to honor those that have passed away.
***
Mothering Sunday is held on the fourth Sunday of Lent, or
three weeks before Easter, in the UK and Ireland. In South
America, most countries celebrate Mother's Day on the
second Sunday of May as well. Argentina celebrates it in
October because it is in the southern hemisphere and spring
is in October.

Crystal Glass nail files are the perfect solution for shaping

create an environment for disease (bacterial or fungal). Plus
they can be disinfected, boiled or sterilized by any known means
or simply washed under hot running water.
Mostly you're going to love how they provide a smoother filing
process. NO MORE JAGGED EDGES...
Great for acrylic nails and in the place of a pumice stone. These
files feature two levels of abrasion.
