The term mothering is the church title for commercial Mother's Day. It was the Sunday servants were allowed home to visit their mother.and it is the day all churches in a parish have one big service ie all going to main or mother church.

I have gotten more mothering this past 10 weeks than since I was born, I feel 01-26-2015 fractured my right shoulder in 3 sections and had a break just above the elbow. Thank God for a loving daughter that could come an take over my care. Husband was/is grateful for her also. on the bend starting to pace around my sewing m machine wishing for the ability to sew again.

Thank you for the explanation, Dottymo! Really wish the USA would adopt Boxing Day, though!
