SUMMARY:Mothering Sunday (commercially Mothers Day)
DESCRIPTION:For the summary of the origins of this day CLICK HERE\nMo
 thering Sunday is a holiday celebrated by Catholic and Protestant Chr
 istians in some parts of Europe. It falls on the fourth Sunday in Len
 t, exactly three weeks before Easter (For Orthodox Christians in Europ
 e and elsewhere, the fourth Sunday in Lent remembers St. John of the L
 adder (St. John Climacus))\nDuring the sixteenth century, people retur
 ned to their mother church, the main church or cathedral of the area,
  for a service to be held on Laetare Sunday. This was either a large 
 local church, or more often the nearest cathedral \nMothering Sunday
  became a day when domestic servants were given a day off to visit the
 ir mother church, usually with their own mothers and other family memb
 ers. It was often the only time that whole families could gather toget
 her, since on other days they were prevented by conflicting working ho
 urs, and servants were not given free days on other occasions.[2]\nChi
 ldren and young people who were \"in service\" (as household servants)
  were given a day off on that date so they could visit their families 
 (or, originally, return to their \"mother\" church). The children woul
 d pick wild flowers along the way to place in the church or give to th
 eir mothers. Eventually, the religious tradition evolved into the Moth
 ering Sunday secular tradition of giving gifts to mothers.[1]\nRestaur
 ants can become fully booked....first come, first served\n\nFor more i
