I believe that Mother's Day is celebrated on different dates in different countries.

This article[^] is in Swedish, so I'll translate the most important part:
Mother's Day is celebrated in most countries in the world, but on very different dates, in Sweden, we celebrate Mother's Day on the last Sunday in May just like Morocco and France for instance. In the USA, Finland and Denmark amongst others, the day is celebrated on the second Sunday in May, and in Norway, Mother's Day is celebrated on the second Sunday of February.
According to this, the date for celebration of Mother's Day has something to do with when the flowers (the traditional Mother's Day gift) are in bloom in the given countries...

(Note: I didn't write the text, so I give no guarantee for the accuracy of any of the information)

No doubt, other countries not mentioned in this text can have their own celebration dates...

What I don't understand, though, is why the OP chooses to congratulate his mother in THIS forum... Confused | :confused:
