　　The history of Mother's Day

　　The earliest Mother's Day celebrations are traced back to the spring celebrations of ancient Greece in honor of Rhea, the Mother of the Gods.

　　During the 1600's, England celebrated a day called “Mothering Sunday”， celebrated on the 4th Sunday of Lent . “Mothering Sunday” honored the mothers of England. During this time many of the England's poor worked as servants for the wealthy. As most jobs were located far from their homes, the servants would live at the houses of their employers.

　　On Mothering Sunday the servants would have the day off and were encouraged to return home and spend the day with their mothers. A special cake, called the mothering cake, was often brought along to provide a festive touch.

　　As Christianity spread throughout Europe the celebration changed to honor the “Mother Church” -- the spiritual power that gave them life and protected them from harm. Over time the church festival blended with the Mothering Sunday celebration . People began honoring their mothers as well as the church.

　　In the United States Mother's Day was first suggested in 1872 by Julia Ward Howe as a day dedicated to peace.

　　In 1907 Ana Jarvis, from Philadelphia, began a campaign to establish a national Mother's Day. Ms. Jarvis persuaded her mother's church in Grafton, West Virginia to celebrate Mother's Day on the second anniversary of her mother's death, the 2nd Sunday of May. By the next year Mother's Day was also celebrated in Philadelphia.

　　Ms. Jarvis and her supporters began to write to ministers, businessman, and politicians in their quest to establish a national Mother's Day. It was successful, by 1911 Mother's Day was celebrated in almost every state. President Woodrow

　　Wilson, in 1914, made the official announcement proclaiming Mother's Day a national holiday that was to be held each year on the 2nd Sunday of May.

　　While many countries of the world celebrate their own Mother's Day at different times throughout the year, there are some countries such as Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, and Belgium which also celebrate Mother's Day on the second Sunday of May.

　　Richer Than Gold

　　Strickland Gillilan (1869-1954)I had a mother who read me things .That wholesome life to the boy heart brings .Stories that stir with an upward touch,Oh, that each mother of boys were such!

　　You may have tangible wealth untold,Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.Richer than I you can never be .I had a mother who read to me.

　　关于母亲节的由来中文版：

　　母亲节(Mother's Day)，作为一个感谢母亲的节日，节日起源于古希腊。在这一天，古希腊人向希腊众神之母希布莉(Cybele，宙斯、波塞冬、哈德斯、得墨忒耳、赫拉和赫斯提亚的母亲，故称众神之母)致敬。到古罗马时，这些活动的规模就变得更大，庆祝盛况往往持续达三天之久。

　　当然，古时人们对女神的崇拜只不过是一种迷信，它同今天人们对母性的尊敬是大不相同的。在17世纪中叶，母亲节流传到英国，英国人把封斋期的第四个星期天作为母亲节。在这一天里，出门在外的年轻人将回到家中，给他们的母亲带上一些小礼物。母亲节是在中国港澳台地区流行起来之后才进入大陆的，名贵的珠宝，象征母爱的康乃馨，特制的爱心甜点，精致的手工贺卡等，成为人们向母亲敬献爱意的礼物。

　　20世纪80年代，母亲节逐渐被中国内地的民众所接受。从1988年开始，中国南方的广州等一些城市开始举办母亲节的庆祝活动，并把评选“好母亲”作为内容之一。20世纪末,随着中国与国际的日益接轨，母亲节这一节日在中国大陆各地日益推广开来，越来越多的人开始接受母亲节概念，在每年5月的第二个星期日，中国人和全世界其他国家的人们一道以各种各样的方式表达对母亲养育之恩的感谢。当然，中国人的母亲节更有中国味道。

　　中国人以自己特有的方式表达浓浓的亲情，在母亲节这一天，人们会送给母亲鲜花,蛋糕,亲手烹制的饭菜等等礼物。从小就孝敬父母的中国儿童会尝试着为母亲做饭，洗脸，化妆，演奏音乐，绘制图画，让母亲们快乐地过节。人们在这一天除了孝敬自己的生身母亲之外，还会以慈善募捐，志愿服务的方式向更多的母亲回报亲情。关于母亲节的由来中英文翻译。
