Katharine C: Happy Mother's Day in France



Happy Mother's Day In France:

One of Napoleon's famous quotes is - "The future of a child is the work of his mother".  The tradition of honoring mothers was made official in 1950 and had been inaugurated by Napoleon.

L'amour de ma mere etait si grand que j'ai travaille dur pour le justifier - The love of my mother was so great that I had to work hard to justify it. - Marc Chagall, Russian painter.

Le coeur d'une mere est un abime au fond duquel se trouve toujours le pardon.  - The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.-Honore de Balzac, a 19th century French novelist and playwright.

Dieu ne pouvait etre partout, alors il a cree la mere - God couldn't be everywhere, so He created mothers. (Jewish proverb)




To our mothers, grandmothers, mothers of our grandchildren, to all of them everywhere - 
Happy Fetes des Meres.
