On the second Sunday in may is mother’s day. American children try to do something special for their mother. It is the one day out of the year when children, old and young try to show how much they love their mother. England was one of the first country to have Mother’s day. English people call it mothering Sunday.

In the united state, mother’s day became a holiday in 1916. An American girl, Anna Jarvis wanted to do something special for her mother. Her mother Mrs. Jarvis was a wonderful woman. She was the source of love and strength for the whole family. Sadly, she died in May 1905.

After her death. Anna wrote a letter to the government to ask for a day on which all the mothers in the country were honored. Government agreed and decided to choose second Sunday in May to be Mother’s day.

Now mother’s day is popular in many countries around the world.
