Anyák Napja

Some of the children anxiously awaiting their turn to recite their poems.

Yesterday, the first Sunday in May, was Anyák Napja (Mother's Day) in Hungary.  The children gave a short program in the church service, reciting poems they had memorized to honor their mothers.  It is always so sweet to watch them do their best and to see their mothers beam with pride.  The children then gave their mothers paper flowers they had made for them.  After service every mother and grandmother present received a lovely rose. 

This coming Sunday is Mother's Day in the US.  Happy Mother's Day to Kate, Nadine and Mandy (the mothers of our grandchildren) and to all the mothers out there!
