Mother’s Day is a special occasion celebrated annually to honor and appreciate mothers and mother figures for their love and contributions. In many countries, including the United States, it is observed on the second Sunday in May.

The modern iteration of Mother’s Day was largely influenced by Anna Jarvis, who, in the early 20th century, campaigned for a dedicated day to recognize mothers. Her efforts led to the official establishment of Mother’s Day in the United States in 1914.

On this day, people express their gratitude through various gestures such as giving cards, flowers, and gifts, or by spending quality time with their mothers. It serves as a reminder of the vital role mothers play in nurturing and shaping individuals and communities.
