Mother's Day

                                                             

   Do you know a word more beautiful than "mum"? Do you feel and understand it? Do you have anyone who likes and supports you more than your mother? Who makes your food, washes your clothes and stays all the night near your bed when you are sick? For that and more there are Mother's Day.

 

The earliest Mother's Day celebration was related to the spring festival to honor Rhean, the mother of the Gods , in Greek civilisation. Later,Christians celebrated this day on the fourth Sunday related to honor of Mary, mother of Christ and it was called Mothering Sunday. However, in the modern times Julia Ward Howe and Anna Jarvis had the essential responsibility to bring this day  into existence. Today,the festival of Mothers day is celebrated across 46 countries but on different dates and way.s The most common dates is in March, April or May. For example, in Australia,Mother's Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in May. This event was first started by Mrs Janet Heyden in 1924 . In Lebanon,  mother's day is on the first day of Spring on 21 of March. 

Children take the day as an opportunity to honor their mothers and  thank them for their efforts  giving them life, helping them to and for supporting them. on this day most families meet and share dinner together. Then,  they give their mothers presents and best wishes. Flowers, chocolates, cakes and cards are the most  popular gifts.

Now , I like to say happy Mother's Day to every mother around the world. you are the best presents from god to us.
