best place to be a mom

Happy mother's day to all U.S. moms out there! Sweden celebrates the day in a few weeks. We wish we were in Denver right now so we could mark the occasion with breakfast at our favorite spot: Racines. Instead, I think we'll buy some potted flowers at the garden shop. We used to do that with my mom when we were growing up.

Anyway, even though we are lacking a place that serves french toast with strawberries, Sweden is the best place in the world to be a mom. Really! That's what Save the Children says in its Mother's Day Report Card. I think being a mom is the best feeling in the world no matter where in the world you live. But we feel pretty lucky to be so well taken care of in Sweden.

I agree. Being a mom is fantastic. Being a mom in Sweden is adding a tiny little extra bonus to it. Happy belated non-Swedish mothers day. Hope you are going to have a good Swedish mothers day as well on Sunday. I got my first mothers day present 2 weeks ago - fantastic :-).

I found your blog through the Expat blog listing.
