Some countries around the world celebrate Mother’s Day on the 2nd Sunday in May. In Mexico we always celebrate it on May 10th (no matter what day of the week it happens). Today, May 10th happened on a Sunday so Mexico and many countries around the world will celebrate on the same date. Happy Mother’s Day!

ESPAÑOL
Algunos países del mundo celebran el día de las madres el segundo domingo del mes de mayo mientras que en México siempre lo celebramos el día 10 de mayo (caiga en el día que caiga). Hoy coincide que el 10 de mayo cayó en el segundo domingo del mes así que en México y el resto del mundo celebraremos a nuestras madres el mismo día. ¡Feliz Día de las Madres!

One of Mexico’s most famous divas during the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema was Maria Felix. She was born in the northwestern state of Sonora on April 8th, 1914 and she died on April 8th, 2002 at the age of 88 years old. Do you think this Mexican diva programed her mind to leave this world and immortalize her image on the same day that she was born?

ESPAÑOL

María Félix fue una de las principales divas de la Epoca de Oro del Cine Mexicano. Nació en la ciudad de Alamos en el estado de Sonora (al noroeste de México) un 8 de abril de 1914 y murió el 8 de abril del 2002 a la edad de 88 años. ¿Crees que esta bella diva se haya preparado mentalmente para dejar este mundo e inmortalizar su imagen en la misma fecha en que nació?
