It's really great you know so much about Mother's Day. Except you are missing to main point borderline genius. Emphasis on the word borderline, short for borderline personality disorder.
Why "Thank You", precious!
I was wrong . . . 84 countries celebrate Mother's Day on the second Sunday of May.
Yup. The single greatest day of celebration . . . GLOBALLY!
I didn't miss the point. The point is and was you had no idea that a woman from the United States was responsible for Mother's Day and that Australian participation has nothing to do with Mothering Sunday (Christian Holiday), as celebrated in the UK, on the fourth Sunday in Lent.
See dummy, you really have no depth to your cultural or religious literacy.
Bottom line: You opened your mouth and spewed about something you knew nothing about.
You posted something to be mocked, you got mocked and then followed your predictable drivel of claiming "You don't understand" after your ass gets handed to you time and time again.
Yeah, nutter . . . it's always someone else who fails to understand . . . NEVER you.
Didn't know this: In 1912, Anna Jarvis trademarked the phrases "second Sunday in May" and "Mother's Day", and created the Mother's Day International Association. She specifically noted that "Mother's" should "be a singular possessive, for each family to honor its mother, not a plural possessive commemorating all mothers of the world."
I'd bet LC knew that tidbit.
Hopefully you took the time to read your citation and will be able to pass on something of meaning, this Mother's Day, to your daughter.
