Hello, May! 
Once again it is the month of May, a month long celebration of traditional festivals in different provinces in the Philippines. One famous celebration held is the Flores de Mayo, wherein Catholics honor the Virgin Mary thru Santacruzan/Sagala; young girls would make flower offerings and parade for the Virgin Mary.
