Mothering Sunday explained
Mothering Sunday, usually called Mother's Day in the UK, falls on the fourth Sunday of Lent, three weeks before Easter Sunday. Its origins are religious: people returned to their "mother church" for a special service, and over time that became a day to visit and thank mothers. Because it is tied to Easter, the date changes every year and always falls in March or, occasionally, early April. This is a different date from Mother's Day in the United States, Canada and Australia, which falls in May — worth remembering if you have relatives overseas. Order flowers and cards a few days ahead to avoid the rush.
