Mothers DaySend your Mum an e-card! By Emma Kae - 8th May 2001 - Back to News There are a few rules to being a good child. These include the basics: do not bash your siblings; keep your room clean; never answer back; and never miss an important occasion on pain of death.
Now, Mothers Day is a time to reflect on how you ever made it through your childhood alive… and also to appreciate your Mother for being the marvellous creature she is – after all, she graced the world with your presence, right?
You can acknowledge this day in anyway you like: a decrease in your bank balance; a new pair of moccasins (prefferably in pink); or simply a bunch of flowers from the Morwell Florist .
As for those of us who are extremely cheap, and take the saying “it’s the thought that counts” to heart when purchasing gifts for others, there is always Egreetings.com
Egreetings is a website that offers a huge range of electronic cards and giftware… for free. There are animated cards, video cards and audio cards. There are sweet cards, funny cards, inspirational cards.
There is always something, even for the person who has everything, and is incredibly useful if you are looking for a greeting to send Kylie Minogue, or perhaps the Pope.
Sign up today and send away! Make your mother smile… just don’t blame me when she stops buying you gifts for your birthday and starts sending e-cards instead…
