Happy Mothers Day

Mother’s Day is a modern celebration honoring one’s own mother, as well as motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. 

On May 10, 1908, in what is considered the first Mother’s Day celebration, Anna Jarvis sent 500 carnations to Andrews Methodist Episcopal Church, her mother’s church.  The event generated an enormously positive response, and after extensive lobbying and letter-writing efforts, US President Woodrow Wilson signed a proclamation on May 9, 1914, declaring the second Sunday of May “a public expression of our love and reverence for the mothers of our country.”

Mother’s Day is a very special day of the year for everyone. People who care and love their mothers celebrate this special occasion in many ways. It is an only day of the year which has been dedicated to all the mothers in this world. People in various countries celebrate this event on different dates and days according to the country norms and calendar.

In modern India the holiday has become an event of big awareness in the society. Everyone wants to participate and celebrate this event according to their own way. It is the indication of presence of foreign festival in this culturally diverse country. It is a global event celebrated in many countries.

No matter which part of the world or how you celebrate “Moms”, we can all agree that they are the most important persons in ones life.

We wish all moms around the world a Very Happy Mothers Day!
