Not sure if it's just a US thing, or world wide, but happy father's day to all the dad's out there being there for their kids!

It's fathers day over here as well (somewhere outside of the US)!
Which is interesting, cause I believe we don't share the same mother's day (october vs may? I think)

I am also in a place that shares Father’s Day with the US but not Mother’s Day.

Where I am Mother’s Day is a month or so different I think and whenever I see loads of happy Mother’s Day posts on social media I think I’ve forgotten but then realise the posts are Americans 😂

Oh yeah same!
Its worse since my mother's bday is close to US mother's day, so something in my brain sometimes shortcircuits cause I already associate the month with gifting my mom something.

US mother's day is in May.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

It's on the second Sunday of November here. On a side note, Mother's day is the last Sunday of May.

It's an (mostly) US thing. But thanks.

My first one! :-D It so far has been a good day. Bought myself a brand new spartan zero turn yesterday, mowed my soccer field today with said new motor and later plan to watch the new Avatar movie. Very relaxing!

Congrats on the new kid! This is my 2nd father's day. Spent the day chilling out then went out to dinner with family.

That's awesome. Sounds like a great day through and through!
