The Origin of Mother’s Day

Celebrated on the second Sunday in May, Mother’s Day is an occasion to celebrate the existence of a figure that most of us share in all of our lives. Mothers. Perhaps the most significant and certainly the first woman in many of our lives.

Often the first to nurture and care for us as a child, the most accursedly protective, and the most loving, mothers have been a respected and even worshipped part of our world since the very birth of human life. While we might not always see eye-to-eye with them, they are always there, and remain eternally important in the lives of each and every one of us from birth til death.

However, these largely focussed upon mothers who had lost or suffered in the Civil war, and it wasn’t until the beginning of the 20th that the day truly became what we know it as today. After her mother Ann Reeves Jarvis - a social activist and community organization pioneer during the American Civil War eradied in 1905, Anna Marie Jarvis insisted on making a day as a memorial to all the sacrifices and cares mothers make and give, saying that she believed a mother was “the person who has done more for you than anyone else.”

Following this, the first Mother’s Day was celebrated on May 12, 1907 at the church Reeves Jarvis had frequented when she was alive. Thanks to the efforts of her daughter, the day was recognized by all American states in 1911 and given its modern date in 1914 by Woodrow Wilson. Mother’s Day continues to flourish today as
