imhim Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 The modern holiday of Mother's Day was first celebrated in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother in Grafton, West Virginia. She then began a campaign to make "Mother's Day" a recognized holiday in the United States. Although she was successful in 1914, she was already disappointed with its commercialization by the 1920s. Jarvis' holiday was adopted by other countries and it is now celebrated all over the world. In this tradition, each person offers a gift, card, or remembrance toward their mothers, grandmothers, and/ or maternal figure on mother's day.

imhim Posted March 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 i dont like the way certain 'days' are created and we all have to follow suit... if we dont follow, people/our family or others think we are selfish and all that nonsense... actually gets on my nerves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
