Had a great time last week when we ventured off to Seattle for Mother’s Day.
Both her and the kids had a great time as they visited the Seattle Great Wheel, Fisherman’s Wharf, the Space Needle, and Lunch at Red Robin in Bellevue.
The city is really growing fast. Traffic was light however and we once again found our favorite parking spot in the KOMO building under ground parking lot.
Mothers Day
The modern US holiday of Mothers Day was pushed by Anna Jarvis and became a national observance in 1914 (second Sunday in May). The UK’s Mothering Sunday is older and tied to Lent, so the date moves with Easter.
Carnations are the traditional flower: pink/red for a living mother, white in remembrance.
