In America,Mother’s Day is a national holiday（公众假期） today.It was first celebrated in 1908 in just one state（州）in the country.It was all because of Anna M.Jarvis’s hard work.She wrote so many letters to important people of that time.She wanted to have a day for everyone to show their love and respect to mothers.In 1914,the American President Woodrow Wilson made the second Sunday in May as Mother’s day.
