Mother's Day
导读:你知道母亲节吧!这是一个感谢母亲的节日。那么关于它的由来,你了解吗?一起来读一读吧!
People celebrate Mother's Day in North America. It's
also a holiday in other countries. It is on the second

Sunday in May. It's a day to thank mothers. On that day
mothers usually get cards and flowers. On the cards
children often write "Thanks, Mum" "To the best mother in
the world" "Best wishes for Mother's Day" and so on.
How did the idea for this holiday begin? We should thank Miss
Anna M. Jarvis. The idea of having such a day comes from her. She lived in
West Virginia, the USA. Her mother died on May 9, 1905. She had a deep love
for her mother. She wrote letters to some important persons. In her letters she
asked them to choose a day to show their love for mothers. Later in 1913, they
decided that Mother's Day would be on the second Sunday in May.
On Mother's Day, children give presents to their mothers or the whole
family go out and try to do something nice for their mothers.
