Happy Mother's Day


Happy Mother's Day is a holiday celebrated annually on the second Sunday of May in many countries around the world, including the United States, Canada, Australia, and many European countries. The day is meant to honor mothers and mother figures for their contributions to their families and society as a whole.

The modern version of Mother's Day was first celebrated in the United States in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother, Ann Jarvis, who had worked to establish "Mother's Day Work Clubs" to improve public health. Anna Jarvis campaigned for the holiday to become official, and by 1914, President Woodrow Wilson had declared Mother's Day a national holiday.

However, the celebration of mothers and motherhood dates back much further, with ancient Greeks and Romans holding festivals in honor of their maternal goddesses, and Christians celebrating "Mothering Sunday" in the UK since the 16th century.

To all the mothers out there,


You are the sun in our sky,

The beating of our hearts,

The rock that we lean on,

When our worlds fall apart.


You give us love unconditionally,

And guide us through our days,

You teach us right from wrong,

And show us kindness in so many ways.


Your love is like a warm embrace,

That carries us through life,

You are our shelter from the storm,

And the beacon in the night.


We thank you for your boundless love,

And the mercy that you show,

For all the sacrifices you make,

And the kindness that you bestow.


So here's to all the mothers out there,

We celebrate you today,

For all the love and joy you bring,

In so many countless ways.


You are the nurturer of our dreams,

The one who sees our potential,

You believe in us when we falter,

And help us rise again, essential.


You are the one who stays up late,

To comfort us when we're ill,

You put our needs before your own,

And love us with a love that's real.


Your strength and courage inspire us,

To be the best we can be,

You have shown us what true love is,

And for that, we are so lucky.


So to all the mothers out there,

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts,

For all the sacrifices you make,

And for being there from the start.


Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing mothers out there,

We celebrate you and your unwavering love and care.
