Ask a question on Mother's Day. Do you know the origin of Mother's Day?

Mother's Day 2018 is Sunday, May 13, 2018, March 28 of the lunar calendar. It's today!

Mother's Day originated in Greece, on which the ancient Greeks paid homage to Hera, the mother of the gods in Greek mythology.

In the mid-17th century, Mother's Day spread to England, where the fourth Sunday of Ramadan was regarded as Mother's Day. On this day, the young people out of the house will come home and bring some small gifts to their mothers.

Modern Mother's Day originated in the United States, initiated by Anna Amanm.Jarvis of Philadelphia (1864 / 1948), who is unmarried for life and has been with her mother. In the 1905 century, when his mother died, Amanm was devastated. Two years later (in 1907,), Amanm and her friends began writing letters to influential ministers, businessmen and lawmakers seeking support to make Mother's Day a statutory holiday. She hopes Mother's Day will make you think more about what your mother has done for her family.

The first Mother's Day was held in West Virginia and Pennsylvania on May 10, 1908, during which the carnations were chosen as flowers for their mothers.

In 1913, Congress passed a bill to make the second Sunday of May a statutory Mother's Day.

Mother's Day has spread from now on!
