Mothers day

my kids are the best

After complaining that my steel toe capped boots issued by the agency are so uncomfortable and I was gonna look around for some toe protected trainers , came down this morning to find my mothers day prezzie !!

I wonder how many mums across the country today got steel toe capped trainers for Mothers Day , and so girly too !!! I dont need chocolates or flowers !!

Yep have them 3rd sunday before Easter ( paste egg day where we used to paint the hard boiled eggs then roll them down the hill )

As said you were supposed to go to church that day nowt to do with mothers ( or buying your mother a gift ) as it is the 4th sunday in Lent

Look mate, i’ve just expressed my personal thoughts on mothers day.

Holy Days

See also: Easter Triduum
There are several holy days within the season of Lent:
Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent in Western Christianity
Clean Monday (or “Ash Monday”) is the first day in Eastern Orthodox Christianity
The fourth Lenten Sunday, which marks the halfway point between Ash Wednesday and Easter, is sometimes referred to as Laetare Sunday, particularly by Roman Catholics, and Mothering Sunday, its origin is a sixteenth century celebration of the Mother Church. On Laetare Sunday, the priest has the option of wearing vestments of rose (pink) instead of violet.
The fifth Lenten Sunday, also known as Passion Sunday (however, that term is also applied to Palm Sunday) marks the beginning of Passiontide
The sixth Lenten Sunday, commonly called Palm Sunday, marks the beginning of Holy Week, the final week of Lent immediately preceding Easter
Wednesday of Holy Week is known as Spy Wednesday to commemorate the days on which Judas spied on Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane before betraying him
Thursday is known as Maundy Thursday, or Holy Thursday, and is a day Christians commemorate the Last Supper shared by Christ with his disciples
Good Friday follows the next day, on which Christians remember Jesus’ crucifixion and burial
In the Roman Catholic Church, the Easter Triduum is a three-day event that begins with the entrance hymn of the Mass of the Lord’s Supper. After this Holy Thursday evening celebration, the consecrated hosts are taken from the altar solemnly to a place of reposition where the faithful are invited to worship the holy Body of Christ. On the next day the liturgical commemoration of the Passion of Jesus Christ is celebrated at 3pm, unless a later time is chosen due to work schedules. This service consists of readings from the Scriptures especially John the Evangelist’s account of the Passion of Jesus, followed by prayers, adoration of the cross of Jesus, and a communion service at which the hosts consecrated at the evening Mass of the day before are distributed. The Easter Vigil during the night between Holy Saturday afternoon and Easter Sunday morning starts with the blessing of a fire and a special candle and with readings from Scripture associated with baptism, then the Gloria in Excelsis Deo is sung, water is blessed, baptism and confirmation of adults may take place, and the people are invited to renew the promises of their own baptism, and finally Mass is celebrated in the usual way from the Preparation of the Gifts onwards.
Holy Week and the season of Lent, depending on denomination and local custom, end with Easter Vigil at sundown on Holy Saturday or on the morning of Easter Sunday. It is custom for some churches to hold sunrise services which include open air celebrations in some places.
In the Roman Catholic, Lutheran, and many Anglican churches, the priest’s vestments are violet during the season of Lent. On the fourth Sunday in Lent, rose-coloured vestments may be worn in lieu of violet. In some Anglican churches, a type of unbleached linen or muslin known as Lenten array is used during the first three weeks of Lent, and crimson during Passiontide. On holy days, the colour proper to the day is worn.

Look mate, i’ve just expressed my personal thoughts on mothers day.

That is fine dont have a prob with it just thought I would ask a civil question on it like I said why have a special day for it :question: as they put the price of flowers up etc & what bout the people that dont have mothers :question: ( mate of mine mother died few weeks ago )

BTW yes I do have kids ( 23 & 22 ) & never asked or wanted a present for Mothering Sunday

I think those nice PINK trainers with steely toe-caps in the OP would make a nice present, but only if the female concerned is a PINK fan, of course. :smiley:

As my mum say’s 'theres no such thing as mothers day, your a mother every day.
