Being a mom is but one of many daily roles a mother performs and as this dominates her life, it may be difficult even for her to remember all woman she is. While she is undoubtedly proud of her contributions to her family, she probably doesn’t have time and energy to pamper her inner and outer woman.

Mom looks in mirror, sighs, and wishes she had just ten more minutes to style her hair or apply makeup. She looks at her clothes and wishes for time to shop for something pretty to add to her wardrobe. Or an hour once a week to take a yoga or exercise class to soothe her spirit.

She puts this thought aside for 1,001st time, and moves on to do laundry, wash dishes, go grocery shopping, prepare meals, pick up kids at school, drive them to a sports practice or music lesson, or juggles a job outside as well as her mom’s job.

Mom’s heart and soul of a family, whether she’s married or a single mom. But she’s a woman first, so this Mothers Day, why not give her a unique gift to show you honor all that she is, whether you are her children or husband? Just imagine how her eyes will light up and how delighted she’ll be when she knows her family realizes and cares about a side of her that she has neglected to take care of you.

A name is central to a child's earliest sense of identity. It's often first word he or she learns to read and write. Naming trends of today are defined by celebrities, literary classics, and even name brands. Look no further than your favorite book, car, or brand for baby name ideas. Names like "Armani", "Del Monte", "Infiniti", "Celica", "Chevy", and "Lexus" are increasing in popularity.

Unisex names are another trend that is gaining steam. Parents are using names such as Jordan, Madison, Devon, Bailey, Parker, and Logan on boys and girls. However, when naming a baby, parents must consider if it invites potential teasing. Boys are often targeted more heavily than girls.
