Hello Danette
The modern American holiday of Mother's Day was first celebrated in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother at St Andrew's Methodist Church in Grafton, West Virginia, which now holds the International Mother's Day Shrine. Her campaign to make "Mother's Day" a recognized holiday in the United States began in 1905, the year her beloved mother, Ann Reeves Jarvis, died.
Anna's mission was to honor her own mother by continuing work she started and to set aside a day to honor mothers, "the person who has done more for you than anyone in the world". Anna's mother, Ann Jarvis, was a peace activist who cared for wounded soldiers on both sides of the Civil War and created Mother’s Day Work Clubs to address public health issues.
As far as gifting on mother's day is concerned, we can gift a variety of products such as:
Health Products.
Shawls
Woolen Clothing such as sweaters.
Gloves
Quilts
Warm Full-length Coats
Paintings
Flowers Pots & Flower bouquets
Mother have been caring us for many years. Now its our turn to care her in old days. We should try our best to accommodate our mother with us in our own house and not leave them to go to any old age homes. That would be the best gift for her.
Hope you like my answer
Have a great day
