Mother's Day

Honors mothers and motherhood. Anna Jarvis kicked it off in West Virginia in 1908 to remember her own mother; it became a US national holiday in 1914 and spread to dozens of countries. Most observe it on the second Sunday of May — though Mexico, Spain, the UK and others run on their own calendars.
