Why is Mother's Day next Sunday? Where are you located? Would you clarify this new information as I had always thought it was in May and I got conrused which is easy for me to do nowadays.

Hi socratesanne,

Here is an article about different dates around the world:

Sorry about the florist website but it does explain the reason and dates around the world.

Thanks, I like to learn this wonderful kind of trivia as life is just too oppressive and this is so much more interesting. Learning makes me happy. I shall go on line and check it out.

Wow, that is a lot of differences. I think my clients will like this bit of trivia. something fun to discuss except for the sad things focused on. thanks for looking it up.

Dear Mum,

I think of you more and more, especially in times of need, when I now you would understand what I'm going through.

Thank you for being my Mum xx

I find it good to treat mother's day as is, visit in the morning and reminisce in the evening. Sitting on the sofa we used to sit on together for over 50 years, watching a program that we both watched and look out into the garden we both tended for so long.

This year though, in preparation for our third anniversary, I'll be saying "time to move on".

Thank you Greyone!

That's really heart warming.

Always best to do what your instinct tells you XX
