Tell your parents what you think of them

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Most of us love our parents but how many of us express that love? Yet your father’s birthday, your step-mother’s birthday or your mother’s retirement are ideal days on which to say a few loving words. In fact any family occasion such as a family re-union gives you an opportunity to express your feelings for them. Weddings, of course, being the sentimental occasions they are, are the ideal time to thank them for all they have done for you. So whether you are the groom or the bride make it their big day too by expressing how much they mean to you. This also applies of course if you are the best man who is son of the groom or indeed the son of the bride. Finally, if you have not told them you love them before they die a thoughtful eulogy for mother or appreciative eulogy for father will be a fitting tribute to well loved parents.

Holy Days

Friday, May 9th, 2008

Confirmation day and first Holy Communion days are very important milestones in the life of a child and in that of his or her family. They are often days when grandparents and distant relative travel for a family re-union. Not everybody thinks of giving a speech and a toast but it is a lovely idea to say something to commemorate the special day in the family history. The speech can touch on the child’s growing years and on the importance of faith in his or her life. It can stress how important the child is to those who love him or her. It should be very personal with a touch of humour but, overall, with the message that he or she is very much loved. It should end with a toast for the future. Most of us remember those special days but how much nicer the memory would be if someone thought to speak about us and how special we were.
