Mother's Day has its roots back in ancient Greece and Rome, where festivals were held in honor of mother goddesses. However, the modern version of Mother's Day began in the United States in the early 20th century, thanks to the efforts of Anna Jarvis. She wanted a day to honor the sacrifices mothers made for their children, and in 1914, President Woodrow Wilson officially declared the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day.
