Happy Mother's Day

Mother's Day is observed on the fourth Sunday of Lent in the United Kingdom. Also known as Mothering Sunday, the day will be celebrated today, 6 March. Britons will commemorate today by honouring Virgin Mary, Christ's mother. Apart from the religious importance, Mother's Day is also celebrated across the UK. Besides spending some love-filled moments, many gift flowers and gifts to their mothers. Mother's Day is the occasion for you to shower your mother with love and gifts and make her feel special. Spending some genuine love-filled moments with her.
However, many other countries, including the US, Canada, India, South Africa, the Philippines, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Japan and many Central and South American and European countries, observe the day on the second Sunday on May. This year the day will fall on 8 May.
I wish all mothers, a glorious Mother's day!
