Mothers Day is celebrated around the world. Mothers Day is that special day each year that mothers get to be pampered, dined out, lavished withgifts and get thanked for their unselfish unconditional love and for everything they've done for us. For the gazillion things our mothers do for us, we give her ONE special day out of 365 days in a year when we can lovingly say "Mom, you don't have to do the dishes today... tomorrow is fine."
So, when is this special day? When is Mothers Day? Well, most countries, including the United States, Australia and Canada, celebrate Mothers Day on the second Sunday in May. So this year, Mother's day falls on May 13, 2012.
