How Many Days Until Mother's Day (US)?

Mother's Day in the United States falls on the second Sunday of May each year. The modern holiday was founded by Anna Jarvis, who campaigned for a national day to honor mothers following the death of her own mother in 1905. President Woodrow Wilson officially proclaimed it a national holiday in 1914. It is now one of the busiest days for restaurants, florists, and greeting card sales. Other countries celebrate Mother's Day on different dates — the UK observes Mothering Sunday in March.
