MARION, IL (KFVS)-

Mother's Day is traditionally a day for families to celebrate everything mom's do throughout the year.

And it's also the busiest day of the year for restaurants.

On Sunday afternoon, families in Marion waited for more than an hour for a table at the Red Lobster.

Across the street at O'Charleys the wait was even longer for the McGuire Family.

"We went to church earlier and we all met up here to have Mother's Day together," said Sharon McGuire. "It's going to be an hour and a half wait. But it's worth it to be with the kids and grand kids."

And for some kids it's just as enjoyable for them to get to spend the special day with their mom.

"Mother's Day means a lot to me every year," said Jodi Hawkins. "But, Mother's Day in general I think needs to be celebrated every day. My Mother means a lot to me, we've always been very close."
