Mother’s Day
This week, we’re celebrating all the mothers out there, sharing their love, strength, wisdom, but also silliness, complicity and grain de folie: we see you, and we love you 💕
Though Mother’s Day is celebrated in many countries around the world, the celebration date differs. In France, la Fête des Mères is celebrated on the last Sunday in May, and its first occurrence goes back to 1906 🥰

Quote me on this!
French poet Alfred de Musset (1810-1857)
Celebrate your mother(s) with this lovely stanza from French poet Alfred de Musset’s poem “À ma mère”:
“Arrive-t-il quelque bonheur ?
Vite, à sa mère on le raconte ;
C’est dans son sein consolateur
Qu’on raconte ses pleurs ou sa honte.”
(When something good happens,
We quickly tell our mother.
It’s in her comforting arms
That we share our tears or our shame.)
