Father Bill, the priest at St. Albert's, sings Ave Maria at the end of mass every Mother's Day. That being Grandma's favorite song, as soon as I got out of church today I called Mom and Grandma to invite them to Austin for Mother's Day next year. Anybody else who is interested is more than welcome to join us. I go to the 8:30am service, and as long as Grandma is up for it, we'll walk the half mile to church.
Oh yeah. My church also gives out little presents to moms on Mother's Day (they also give out presents to dads on Father's Day), for the past couple of years, they've been giving out coffee mugs, but this year they handed out begonia plants. My first Mother's Day gift :-)

I, too, love the song Ave Maria. I'll pencil it in.
