Unique ways of Celebrating Mother's Day
Mothers Day of Celebration
Mothers Day is celebrated throughout the world, not essentially on the same day. It varies.. Motherhood is a special status of a woman which gives her all the courage to go through to become a mother and later taking several hurdles to bring up her children. She endures throughout her life for their sake.
When the children grow up and understand the greatness of their mother's role in their life, they try to honour a day in her life as a special day for her. In each country they celebrate this special day in their own unique style, though the theme and the meaning are the same.

This festival officially began in the year 1914 when President Woodrow Wilson, the then President, declared the second Sunday in May, a day to honour all the mothers, which subsequently became Mothers Day.
Anna Reevis Javis of Grafton, West Virginia, a hard working mother by volunteering her work to causes that would benefit her community, passed away on May 9, 1905.
