* This is how Mother's Day was bornhttps://www.cnn.com/2020/05/10/us/mothers-day-history-trnd/index.html* Suffragist and writer Julia Ward Howe first suggested the idea of Mother's Day in the United States in 1872. Howe was a pacifist and saw the holiday as a chance to unite women and rally for peace. For several years, she held an annual Mother's Day meeting in Boston.* However, West Virginia activist Anna Jarvis is credited with creating the holiday that is celebrated today.* In 1908, Jarvis campaigned for a national observance of the holiday in honor of her mother, who was a community health advocate. Her mom had organized several Mother's Day Work Clubs that addressed child rearing and public health issues, and Jarvis wanted to commemorate her and the work of all mothers.* However, Jarvis later became disillusioned by how floral and greeting card companies commercialized the holiday and said she regretted starting it.* It became an official US holiday in 1914 when President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed the second Sunday in May as a day of "public expression of our love and reverence for the mothers of our country."* Insure.com's Mother's Day Index, which assigns an annual salary to the work that moms do at home, was valued at $93,920. That represents a 32% increase over last year because of all the extra work moms have had to do during the coronavirus pandemic.* So on Sunday, it's mom's turn to be taken care of.

To the south, turquoise sea and white sand, hundreds of sunbathers enjoying recently reopened beaches.* In this medium-sized city, known for its hedonistic nightlife and its seafood, most reopening is being done by halves.* Republican governor, Tate Reeves, allowed restaurants to host dining at half-capacity, retail stores to reopen with restrictions and up to 20 people to gather in groups outside.* Three days before the governor’s latest guidance, Mississippi announced its highest number of daily cases and deaths. * Other states in the south, including Georgia, Texas and Florida, have also moved to open despite growing numbers of cases.* Reeves has taken cues from Donald Trump, who has encouraged states to open in the face of White Hou...
