kind mother.
Hi!

mother with the housework.

Annas mother wanted to help people feel better.
So she started a tradition, Mothers Friendship
Day.

designate the day of her mothers death as a
holiday to commemorate all mothers.
11In 1914, Mothers Day , the second Sunday in May
,became the official national holiday in the
U.S.A.
