Mother's Day is observed on the second Sunday in May, which falls on May 9 this year. Mothers are God's one-of-a-kind gift to children, and the world honours mothers' supreme sacrifices for their children. It also recognises a mother's unconditional love for her children. "A mother is your first friend, best friend, and forever friend," they say. Mother's Day was first observed in the United States in 1908, when a woman named Anna Jarvis wanted to establish Mother's Day as a recognised holiday to honour her mother, Ann Reese Jarvis, a peace activist who had died three years before.
