Is Mother’s Day too Commercial?

Mothers Day, or any day, is what you make it.  You can decide to skip Mothers Day on the grounds that you deserve to be pampered more often than once a year.  You can celebrate it on the grounds that it’s about time someone do something for you for a change.  You can smile demurely because you know that your kids or your husband will spoil you whether you voice an opinion or not.  You can make it about your mother, because now that you have kids you appreciate her more than ever.

I am having a Mothers Day Sale because there are many mothers who love wraps or would love to have a wrap, and they appreciate any help in getting one, and this is a good excuse to be nice to moms.

I am releasing mothers from any feeling of guilt over buying themselves a Mother’s Day present because I can almost guarantee that they deserve it.

I am admitting that no monetary purchases need happen in order to celebrate Mother’s Day, that priceless (and costless) gifts are wonderful, and that no gift at all is necessary to celebrate the love you have for someone.

And I am acknowledging that there are families for whom purchasing a wrap is a huge purchase, and should not be treated lightly whether it is Mother’s Day or not.

But I’m not going to let any of that stop me from treating Mother’s Day, and my Special Mother’s Day Event lightheartedly, with a spirit of play.

I just wanted to clarify that anything I post about this offer is intended to be fun and happy, and not to imply that husband’s are bad (or good), that mothers are deserving (or selfish), or that if you really love someone, you have to buy them anything!

So are we good?  Happy Mother’s Day!
