Hmm...well thanks for clearing that up guys!!!
Oh well...my only excuse it that us mums deserve a mention any day of the week eh??
.... leave it to GT to list half of the countries around the world that celebrate Mother's Day with the respective dates! ....
Well, I think Mother's Day is celebrated everywhere because women around the world are becoming Moms and Grand-Mothers for the first time everday! Amazing to think that new life happens everyday and it's all thanks to females!
~ Happy Mother's Day ~
