📝 About Mother's Day 2026
Mother's Day is a celebration honoring mothers and motherhood, observed with gifts, flowers, and quality time with family. The modern American holiday was established in 1908 by Anna Jarvis, who campaigned to create a day recognizing the sacrifices mothers make, and it became an official U.S. holiday in 1914 under President Woodrow Wilson. While the United States, Canada, and many other countries celebrate on the second Sunday of May, dates vary globally, with the United Kingdom observing Mothering Sunday during Lent. Florists and greeting card companies see enormous surges in sales around the day, with approximately 113 million Mother's Day cards sent annually in the U.S., making it the third-largest card-sending holiday of the year.
