The King and Queen in Thailand are very well respected. As a special honour to them, their birthdays are also marked by national Father's and Mother's Day. Recently we celebrated the Queen's Birthday. This is what Damrong, one of my students wrote about it:
Dear Friends,
The Queen's birthday is on 12th August. We call this day Mother's Day because the Queen is mother to everyone. On this day we praise her transcendent vrtues and send blessing to the Queen. On this day I also gave some jasmine flowers to my mother.

Another popular festival in Thailand takes place during the full moon in November. The following is from Damrong:
Dear Friends,
This day is very beautiful. We float a banana leaf cup on the water as an offering to the Mother of Water to ask her to forgive us for polluting the water. We make a wish for a better and cleaner future. There are also many beautiful fireworks during the evening.
