Happy Mother’s Day
Mother’s have been celebrated all around the world since ancient times. Our present day holiday for mother’s was made official by President Woodrow Wilson in 1914 because of the efforts of Anna Jarvis. In the years before the Civil War Anna’s mother, Ann Reeves Jarvis, started a what she called “Mothers’ Day Work Clubs” these clubs were organized to teach local woman how to properly care for their children. Anna wanted to not only recognize her mother but all other mothers by honoring them for all the sacrifices that they make for their children.
