When she was 12 years old, Anna Jarvis' mother concluded a lesson about the mothers in The Bible with this prayer:
"I hope that someone, sometime will found a memorial mothers day commemorating her for the matchless service she renders to humanity in every field of life. She is entitled to it."
At her mother's graveside service, Anna recalled the prayer and said "...by the grace of God, you shall have that Mothers Day." Her brother, Claude, overheard those words.
She resolved to honor her mother. Her resolve became stronger when she realized that adult children in the United States were negligent toward their parents.
