Any mother will enjoy the pairing of the beauty of a mother's love with quotes inspired by the unique bond between mothers and children. A mother's love is portrayed in a beautiful floral design where each flower represents a different characteristic of mothers. It takes a lot of strength to be a mother, illustrated by the gladiola -- a strong, powerful flower. "Gladiola" is a Greek word meaning "sword," reminding us that a mother is a powerful force for her children. She is their advocate, always on their side, and is willing to fight for them against all adversity.
