Celebrate MothersIn 1905, Anna Jarvis began a campaign to

make Mother’s Day a recognized holiday in theUnited States. Jarvis’ own mother had been apeace activist who cared for wounded soldierson both sides during the Civil War. Celebratethe mothers in your life on the second Sundayin May.

The residents had a blast in the kitchen making homemade mini donutswith homemade icing. Grace really enjoyed spending time in the kitchen.

Sun to RainUmbrellas were invented as protection from the

sun’s rays, not rain showers. The word umbrella comesfrom the Latin word umbra, meaning “shade.”
