Mother’s Day or Mothers’ Day? Where should the apostrophe go?

🌷It’s Mothering Sunday here in the UK.

And if you’ve been wondering where to put the apostrophe in your card…

✅ I can confirm it should go between the ‘R’ and the ‘S’.

Mother’s Day

Yes, more than one mum is celebrating a special day today, but it’s convention to treat it as a singular. It’s a day belonging to the person to whom you’ve written the card.

Happy Mother’s Day.

💐
