Biko OP, like how many mother's days do we do in a year? Been seeing the messages flying up and down since morning and I'm sure we did one not quite long ago

Universal Mother's day, I believe, was scheduled to fall somewhere around early May. However, Catholic/Anglican Churches carved out their own day to celebrate mothers which usually falls sometime between March and April in the season of lent. So you have:
A) Mothering Sunday (march)
B) Mother's day (may)

Hope this helps.

I hear it a lot but this particular one came too soon after the previous one I heard. Anyways, mothers are trying... We should celebrate them everyday. Happy mother's day to us women who love and care for children, biological or otherwise.
