День Матері

День Матері

Ukraine has celebrated Mother’s Day on the 2nd Sunday in May since 1999 – before they celebrated the Communist Holiday – International Women’s Day – like Russia still does – on March 8th. 

For Mother’s Day (День Матері) today please remember all the Ukrainian Mothers currently suffering because of the Russian Nazis.

The Mothers who have been forced to flee the bombs and bullets in their hometowns.

 The Mothers who have not been allowed to flee the bombs and bullets in their hometowns.

The Mothers who give birth in Subway Stations.

The Mothers who give birth in Hospitals that are targeted by the Russians.

The Mothers who are forced to watch their Children being tortured by the Russians.

The Mothers who are forced to watch their Children being massacred by the Russians.

The Mothers who are forced to watch their Children starve to death because the Russians are stealing their food.

The Mothers who can’t be with their Children because they are off fighting to defend their homes and Families.

This Mother’s Day is more important than ever before. It shows us just how hard Mothers and Mother-Like Women work and love despite all the hardships.
