The modern Mother's Day holiday was created by Anna Jarvis as a day for each family to honor their mother,[1] and it's now celebrated on various days in many places around the world. It complements Father's Day, the celebration honoring fathers.

This holiday is relatively modern, being created at the start of the 20th century, and should not be confused with the early pagan and Christian traditions honoring mothers, or with the 16th century celebration of Mothering Sunday, which is also known as Mother's Day in the UK.

In most countries the Mother's Day celebration is a recent holiday derived from the original US celebration. Exceptions are, for example, the Mothering Sunday holiday in the UK.
It is celebrated in the United States each year on the second Sunday of May.

10th of May, is celebrated as Mother's Day to shower love on the most precious person on this earth, the Mother. She is one person who nurtures her child without any expectations back. She gives you hope when you are down. She is the reason for your smiles. She takes away all your sorrows and blessed you always. This is how special and sacred this relationship is. To honor this relationship and pay respects to this special woman, Mother's Day is celebrated.

Why Mother's Day is celebrated?
They say better late than never as this modern day concept got introduced pretty late in comparison to other special days of the year. 'Mother's Day' is a befitting tribute to one of the finest and most precious relationships that mankind has ever witnessed, the Mother. She is the lady who loves you the most, who is the reason for your existence, someone who puts her child's best interest above anything. She epitomises love and care beyond her self and minus any expectations back. On this day, mothers for a change get royal treatment from the hands of their children. The markets are full of shops selling gift items for this self-less lady of love and compassion.

When Mother's Day is celebrated?
A very special day is reserved every year to show deep feelings of love, care and respect for ones Mother, termed as the Mother's Day, it will be celebrated with fanfare on the 10th of May. Although there are some countries where this day is celebrated on different dates. No single day has been kept for universal celebrations. It would've been a great idea if one single day could have been identified to earmark this special relationship

Mother's Day Celebrations in the West:
Internationally, Mother's Day is celebrated with lot of enthusiasm. Mother's Day in Britain or Mothering Sunday as it is commonly called began in the 17th. century. By the 19th. century the holiday had almost died down. However, it again came to light after World War II, when American servicemen brought the custom back to Britain. Mothers get showered on this special day with lots of gifts.

Mother's Day is celebrated internationally with lot of enthusiasm, but some of the countries celebrate it at different times of the year, like Argentina (2nd Sunday in Oct.), France (last Sunday in May), Lebanon (1st day of Spring), Norway (2nd Sunday in Feb.), South Africa (1st Sunday in May), Sweden (last Sunday in May), and Yugoslavia (two weeks before Christmas).
How to Celebrate Mother's Day
The best way to make this day special for your mother is to shower her with lot and lots of love and affection for what she is waiting for since you grew. The backbone of Mother's Day is the strong bonding shared by a Mother and her child. This day can be made special for her if a careful thought is given in putting together a bouquet of wonderful surprises that you can deliver to your mother. This could include small things like having a nostalgic conversation with her, treating her to self-cooked food, taking her out for shopping, showering her with gifts, thanking her for all she has done for you, re-assuring her of your love and support throughout the rest of home.
