history--Mother's Day
I didn't
know this.
In 1914,
President Woodrow Wilson
signed a proclamation
designating Mother's Day,
held on the second Sunday
in May, as a national holiday
to honor mothers.
Although Jarvis was successful in founding Mother's Day,
Anna Marie Jarvis , 1864,
Taylor County, West Virginia .
On Nov 24, 1948, West Chester,
Pennsylvania was the founder of
the Mother's Day holiday
in the United States.
Hope you all
have a wonderful
Mothers Day.
