HR7 - Commemorating Mexican Mother's Day on May 10, 2025.

      H.R. No. 7       R E S O L U T I O N          WHEREAS, Mother's Day is among the most cherished   celebrations in Mexican culture, and many Texans of Mexican descent   are observing El Día de las Madres on May 10, 2025; and          WHEREAS, Inspired by their neighbors to the north, Mexicans   began observing a Mother's Day holiday in the early part of the 20th   century; the celebrations of Mother's Day in Mexico and in the   United States bear many similarities, with children often   presenting their mothers with gifts of candy, cards, or flowers and   treating them to a special lunch or dinner; and          WHEREAS, In some Mexican cities, it is customary for children   to begin the day by serenading their mothers at their bedside, and   some even engage mariachi bands to accompany them; many families go   on to attend a special mass and community breakfast; regardless of   the traditions that families embrace, the greatest gift of all is   the precious time spent with loved ones; and          WHEREAS, The bond of affection shared between mother and   child is eternal, and Mother's Day offers a welcome opportunity for   all to express gratitude to their mothers for the unconditional   love, support, and wisdom that they have given them throughout   their lives; now, therefore, be it          RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 89th Texas   Legislature hereby commemorate Mexican Mother's Day on May 10,   2025, and extend warmest best wishes to the Texas families who are   taking part in this treasured occasion.     Morales of Harris     ______________________________   Speaker of the House                 I certify that H.R.
