Mother's Day was instigated by Anna Jervis in the US as a day for each family to honour their mother. It is now celebrated on various days around the world.
This day was started at the start of the 20th century, and should not be confused with the early pagan and Christian traditions honouring mothers, or with the 16th century celebration of Mothering Sunday also known as Mother's Day in the UK.
In most countries the Mother's Day is celebrated around the second Sunday of May.
Where ever you are, I tust you have an enjoyable Mother's day and show appreciation for the myriad of small things that your Mother does every day for you.
If you are a Mother, then from me have an enjoyable Mother's Day knowing that your family really do appreciate all that you are and do for them.
