    Hello Ivy
    Many thanks for your comment and question.

    MOTHERS DAY INFORMATION

    It is celebrated on different days in many parts of the world, most commonly in March or May.

    The UK date of this celebration is rooted in the Christian observance of Lent, with Mothering Sunday taking place on the fourth Sunday, exactly three weeks before Easter Sunday. This observance originated in the Middle Ages, when children who had left their families to work in domestic service were allowed to go to their home – or “mother” – church.

    The journey home morphed into a spring occasion for families to reunite, which eventually adopted the custom of children picking flowers on the way home as a gift to their mothers.

    Mothers Day in the US began in 1907.
