(except in the UK as we already had Mother's Day on 26th March, before any UK peeps panic they forgot their mum!)
Oh! LoL. Good to know. Well then, good evening to you!
Hehe, yeah it always gives me a moment of panic when people from other countries start going on about how Mother's Day is coming up and then I remember we had it a couple of weeks before Easter!
I had no idea that a) this was a thing outside North America and b) it happens on different days. TIL!
Well the UK version is from an old Christian tradition of returning to your mother church during Lent called Mothering Sunday, which is why it moves around with Easter. America and most of the rest of the world have Mother's Day on the same date, and I'm not sure of its origin and why that date was chosen. Father's Day in the UK is the same day as the US (and most other countries) because that isn't something with the same long tradition as Mother's Day.
Interesting... and today I learned! Grin
Oh wow lol no it's a worldwide thing!
And I've just come across an article about how mother's day started in the US https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2017/05/when-mothers-day-is-empowering/526563/
Happy Monday morning from Japan 😴
Thank you, thank you!
