One relationship which is always with us is the one we share with our mothers. They are our guiding force and are responsible for making us who we are. Mothers also shape our lives and our personalities and crediting them for the same is something one should do at every opportunity.

Thanks to the campaign efforts of Anna Jarvis, several states officially recognized Mother's Day, the first in 1910 being West Virginia, Jarvis' home state.

The Mother's Day date was declared by US President Woodrow Wilson on May 8, 1914 when he signed a Joint Resolution designating the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day and as a national holiday to honor mothers..

Today the festival of Mothers day is celebrated across 46 countries (though on different dates) and is a hugely popular affair. A special day in the honor of mothers, Mothers Day is celebrated in several countries around the world though on different dates.

Mothers are everything for us when we are small...our lives revolve around her. For everything that we need we call mother. She is the focal point of our lives, the greatest human being in the world or should we say divinity on earth. On the special occasion of Mothers Day pay tribute to your mother - the greatest blessing of God on you.
