HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!

Wishing mothers and mother figures around the world, a very happy Mother’s Day.  A celebration of motherhood, Mother’s Day is a time to make an extra-special effort to recognize and appreciate a mother’s role in our lives. Celebrated annually in the United States on the second Sunday in May, three women were most instrumental in establishing the tradition of Mother’s Day: Ann Reeves Jarvis, Julia Ward Howe, and Ann’s daughter, Anna M. Jarvis. Learn more about these three great women who fought for children’s welfare, health and peace.
