1、Mothers Day and CarnationsWe give mothers carnations on Mothers Day. But why do we give away carnations and how did these flowers become the symbol of Mothers Day?Mothers Day was started by an American lady named Anna Jarvis on May 10, 1908. She used carnations at the first Mothers Day celebration,
2、because carnations were her mothers favorite flower.According to another story in the Bible, carnations are associated with Christ. When Christ was suffering, his mother Mary cried for him. Her tears fell on the ground and turned into beautiful carnations.These stories led to the custom of giving carnations to mothers today. The flowers stand for the beauty and love of mothers.
