Gradually，Mother's Day became very popular in the US．Actually，the second Sunday of May has become the most popular day of the year．Even though Anna has been dead for long，Mother's Day lives on and has spread to lots of countries all over the world．Although many countries around the world celebrate Mother's Day at different dates，some countries including Denmark，Finland，Italy，Turkey，Australia and Belgium still celebrate Mother's Day on the second Sunday of May．
