Mother's Day is a special celebration honoring moms and also enjoying motherhood, maternal bonds as well as the influence of mothers in the society. It is observed on various days in a great many areas of the world, although generally in March, April, or May. This happy event harmonizes with Father's Day, the special celebration commemorating fathers. Activities of mothers and motherhood take place around the world. In addition, some of these can certainly be traced back to the older Christian Mothering Sunday celebration. In the US, the observance of Mother's Day is actually not related to any existing older activities of Motherhood. However, in some other places and customs, other celebrations of Motherhood have gotten to be known as Mother's Day. In Great Britain, flowers and gifts have been usually brought to mommies on Mothering Sunday. This day is now currently called Mother's Day in the United kingdom. The date of Mother's Day has been chosen to coincide with an existing festival. In some nations around the world the date was changed to one that was significant to the major religion, just like Virgin Mary day in Catholic countries. Some other countries opted for a date with historical relevance, for example Bolivia using the date of a struggle whereby women have taken part.
