Mother's Day around the globe

Even though the majority of countries celebrate Mother's Day on the 10th of May in 2020, which is the second Sunday of this beautiful Spring month, around the globe this celebration is lasting all year round. And we find this so beautiful! We believe Mother's Day, just like Earth Day, should be every day!
