U.S. observances of Mother's Day date back to the early 20th century, when Anna Jarvis decided to honor the charitable and giving memory of her mother, Ann Reeves Jarvis, with a holiday. Mother's Day became a national holiday in 1914, and it has been celebrated on the second Sunday in May every year since.
