The beginning of Mexican Mother’s Day dates back to April 13, 1922, the day on which the journalist and founder of the newspaper Excelsior, Rafael Alducin (1889-1924), launched a nationwide invitation to choose a special date to pay homage, affection and respect to Mexican mothers.Īccording to the Spanish newspaper El País, the response of Mexican society and the media was favorable, which led to Mexico’s to become the first official Mother’s Day, turning our country in the first nation in Latin America to pay that highly deserved recognition to the mothers. However, the authorities did not show enough enthusiasm for Mother’s Day to become an official celebration, until 1914, when President Woodrow Wilson formally decreed that celebration in the United States on the second Sunday of the month of May. Relatives, friends, neighbors and acquaintances participated spreading the idea in their community through flyers and texts published in local newspapers.Ī year later, the group achieved its mission and for the first time on May 10, 1908, an unofficial ceremony was held to commemorate the mothers in a Methodist church in Grafton, Virginia, United States of America, where around 400 mothers attended with their families. Since that moment, she began a campaing to get the authorities to comply with her request. ★★★ If you purchase one of my printables, please tag me on Instagram in your posts/stories so that I can see how you're using my product.For Mexicans, May 10th is the day to celebrate mothers, or the “Queens of home” (Las Reinas de la casa), and we usually give them flowers, chocolates, clothes, shoes, purses or any other (useless) gift that is good to express our gratitude and love to these women, who are extremely important in our culture.Īccording to the site, the origin of Mother’s day goes back to ancient Greece, where Mother’s Day was established in honor of “ Rhea“, who was known as “the mother of all Greek gods”.Īlong the 19th Century, there were several proposals to have a day to pay tribute to mothers, but it was until 1907 when an American woman, Ana Jarvis met with a group of friends and raised the challenge of working together to establish a date for this celebration.
