                    [Summary] => Commemorating Mother’s Day is a 20th-century phenomenon.  Although in the past, the ancient spring festival was dedicated to the Great Mother of the Gods, the symbol of universal motherhood. A possible link between the ancient practice and the present Mother’s Day celebration may be Mothering Sunday, the mid-Lent  Sunday when it was customary for children to give token gifts to their mothers. But Mother’s  Day observed in the second Sunday of May is part of our American heritage.
