It’s haha no hi (母の日) in Japan today, so I was tickled to call mom, speaking in Japanese congratulated her on the mother’s day. She simply laughed. ^^
I just found out that different countries have different dates on celebrating Mother’s day. Never noticed it before when I was in Indonesia.
In Indonesia, it’s on December 22 while for example, in Thailand, it’s on August, 12, which’s the queen’s birthday. As she’s regarded as the mother of Thai people then it turned out to be mother’s day.
And as for Mongolian, it’s on March,8 (actually woman’s day) and June,1 celebrating mothers and childrens’ day. So it’s the only country in the world that celebrate mother’s day twice in a year. ![]()
Isn’t it unique?
Happy mothers’ day for all moms in the world, here’re some quotes for you moms.
A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie. ~Tenneva Jordan
Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs… since the payment is pure love. ~Mildred B. Vermont
A man loves his sweetheart the most, his wife the best, but his mother the longest. ~Irish Proverb
Happy mother’s day, mom! I hope to cook her some home-cooked Japanese food, ha ha.. (wait until I come back home, mom.. promise.. )
Love you mom.. muah muah (this is usual salutation before ending the phone-call, ha ha..)
