Mother's Day is one of those days where it seems I have too many mothers. I have to send something to my step-mother, my grandmother, my step-grandmother, my grandmother on my father's side, my sister (who is a new mom), my mother (of course), and my god-mother. Did I leave anyone out? Sheesh. Anyway, thank you for making Mother's Day a little easier to deal with. Point, click, click, click, click, FTD, blah blah blah... you get the picture.(Eliza P., Springfield OH )

Allen Texas Offices

 

I decided to be audacious this year and send my boyfriend, who is in Peru with his family for the moment, a series of flower bouquets. One a day for a week until his birthday. The reason it was so audacious is that his family is in the florist business and use FTD every day. I’m not sure if they were sending the flowers to themselves down there, but the gesture has warmed them to me (finally), and I’ll be seeing Gabriel very soon. Thank you very much for your service.(Lucy I. , Fayetteville AR )

Allen Texas Funeral Homes

 

As a society, we tend to send flowers out of feelings of guilt for not being in a place we would normally be. Before the advent of automobiles and airplanes, we wouldn't stray too far from home (except in a few cases), and so we didn't have a need for sending gifts through the mail, or the Internet, or using FTD, or some other wire service. But we are products of our times, and because even nuclear families are so far flung, and because husbands and wives often live and work on different continents from one another, we have this need to send gifts to one anther in lieu of being there. What we're acknowledging is that we usually do what we can to make compromises between how we would like to live and how we would like to be close to one another. It's apparently socially acceptable to be apart like this as long as we can send each other things that remind us of this emotional connection even though there's no physical connection. ROCK ON, BROTHER!!!(Rey V. , Nagoya , Japan)

Let me paint a picture for you guys who just royally screwed up with your women. Do you say I'm Sorry, or do you say I'm Sorry with flowers? Which do you think works better? Hmm? Try it even when you haven't done anything. Mark down the response as an experimental effect and then try it again in a couple of months. Trust me. This stuff is science. Oh, by the way, the flowers you people deliver are terrific.(Lucas L., Jaffa )

Allen Texas Hospitals

 

I'll say this to you, if you can make a website that is easy enough for my father to use, you've really accomplished something. He's a total technophobe, so it was such a surprise when I saw your name on the delivery. I thought to myself, "You mean my dad used the Internet successfully?" It was a revelation. Now that I am ordering from you, I see how he might have been able to order from you will no trouble at all. My whole family are now customers of yours!(Sharon T., Sherman TX )

Allen Texas Business

 

I would never have thought to send flowers to my brother to congratulate him on getting a new job. Before I sent him flowers, I wouldn't have suspected that he liked getting them. Maybe he wouldn't have suspected that either. But that was his day when he first went to work. He had the flowers right in front of him as he described the view from his office window. I've never heard him more excited.(Tracy J., Alexandria LA )

My boyfriend and I often buy each other gifts but I always tell him I'm not keen on flowers - only because no one ever sent me any until last week! They were gorgeous, thank you!(Charlotte Green, San Diego CA )

Allen Texas Schools

 

My friends know how much I love flowers as I always have something growing out of a vase at home. They always comment on how stunning they look, but should I tell them I buy them from you? I want to be the one in my circle with the best flower arrangements!(Neil Pearson, Minneapolis MN )

Allen Texas Motels

 

Thanks for your patience. I should have known that everything would be OK. I absolutely told my mother to call the SECOND she received the mystery gift from me, so I was concerned that I hadn't heard from her all day. I apologize for calling to bother you so often. It turned out that she was so impressed by the flowers themselves that she FORGOT to call her only daughter who actually sent it to her. Everything's fine. Thanks for being YOU.(Nicole U. , Morristown TN )
