Why do they do this? Why not just have a fixed date for these things? Is it so people can use the weekend to celebrate?

If it was a fixed day it would end up being a week day a lot of the time.
Maybe that doesn’t matter, but it’s nice to have on a weekend.
Maybe I’m missing what you mean?

For Mother's Day, possibly, but it's not always the case. Thanksgiving is on the 4th Thursday of November.
