The floral company, hoping to do big business this weekend, and Sperling's, a research firm that churns out best places lists, considered child care, pediatricians and family activities in their rankings.
San Jose, Calif., and Milwaukee, Wis., topped the list of "mom-friendly" cities. After Raleigh, came Cincinnati; Washington, DC, Arlington/Alexandria, Va.; Columbus, Ohio; Baltimore; Boston; Honolulu; and the San Francisco and Oakland, Calif., areas.
