UK Mothers Day: 31st March 2019
To Bob's point, when he posted the reminder last year, last year was indeed, rather early (March 11th), and this year has moved back closer to the typical time.

It's "Mothering Sunday" and it's always the fourth Sunday of Lent. So with Easter being so late this year, Mothering Sunday is later too. And Easter Sunday is the first Sunday after the first Full Moon occurring on or after the vernal equinox.

Correct on all counts, and if someone else had made post #1, I would probably have made post #2.
