Mothering Sunday
Brief information about this British holiday celebrated on "the fourth Sunday of Lent. ... Traditionally, it was a day when children, mainly daughters, who had gone to work as domestic servants were given a day off to visit their mother and family. Today it is a day when children give presents, flowers, and home made cards to their mothers." From the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC).
