Hi!

Do you celebrate Mother's Day in Russia? If so, when is it?

Thanks!

hi,

Mother's day is celebrated on the last Sunday of November, but not everyone is even aware of such a holiday. The major women's day in Russia is the 8th of March (unfortunately). To my mind, it would be better if we celebrated Mother's Day))

Mother's Day is a celebration honoring the mother of the family, as well as motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, most commonly in the months of March or May. It complements similar celebrations honoring family members, such as Father's Day, Siblings Day, and Grandparents Day.

Yes, we do!
I always try to come up with an original gift for my mother.
Last time I presented her some fine cosmetic butters, she's really fond of natural stuff.
What do you present to your mother each year?
