What day of the week is Mother's Day?
I pulled the curtain to bid farewell to my mother on the river bank, looking at her white hair with sorrow and tears in my eyes. As May arrives, Mother's Day is approaching.

Ms. Jarvis never married and always stayed with her mother. In 1907, Ms. Jarvis wrote to Andrews Methodist Episcopal Church in Grafton, West Virginia, asking the church to hold a special memorial service for her mother, who had died two years earlier, because her mother had attended the church's Sunday school for more than 20 years. In 1908, the Andrews Methodist Episcopal Church announced that the anniversary of Jarvis' mother's death (the second Sunday in May) would be designated Mother's Day and promoted it vigorously. Jarvis himself also organized a Mother's Day Committee and called for Mother's Day to be designated as a legal holiday. Until 1910, West Virginia became the first state in the United States to celebrate Mother's Day. Later, Mother's Day activities were carried out very widely, not only swept the entire United States, even Canada, Mexico and some countries in South America began to celebrate Mother's Day. By 1912, the United States finally established the International Mother's Day Association. |
