In May, I miss my family more. In Korea, May is Family Month because there are family related anniversaries in May – Children’s Day, Parents’ Day, Teacher’s Day and so on. Those are similar in America to Mother’s day or Teacher’s Day.
I remember singing a song for each anniversary in school and making cards for family members and teachers. This year, I talked with my family online and sent some gifts. I hiked Forest Park on May, 8th Mother’s Day here. I saw a lot of family at the hike and they were talking, laughing, and taking pictures. I thought that it is a nice way to spend time with mother and make memories.
What did you do on Mother’s Day? If you missed the chance, for Family-Month, let’s express the love to family and teachers just like beautiful sunshine in May!
Thanks for writing a piece emphasizing the importance of family and of spending time with family! I wish we celebrated children, parents, and teachers more frequently in this country.
