Mexican Mothers Day
May 10
In Mexico, Mother's Day is celebrated on the 10th of May, every year. Mexicans have a fixed date for celebrating this special day, unlike the Americans who celebrate it on the second Sunday of May. For Mexicans, it is the time to reflect and rejoice the greatness which motherhood encompasses within itself.
Its importance in Mexican culture is noted with the fact that it is regarded as an especially significant holiday. It is celebrated with a mass at the shrine of the Virgin of Guadalupe, where an orchestra plays 'las maņanitas' of the Virgin. The Virgin here is symbolical of motherhood. After the mass, Mexicans follow a wonderful custom of providing early morning meal to all the mothers. The meal involves distribution of 'tamales' and 'atole'.
