By Carolina Alphonso, Staff Writer\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Mother\u2019s Day was first introduced in 1914 by Wildrow Willson as a way to say thank you to mothers all across the country. Since then, the day has been celebrated every year, with stores advertising that you get something special for the ones who help make your life a bit brighter. It\u2019s a great opportunity for students at River Hill to do something special for their moms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Mother\u2019s Day is a day to celebrate mothers and all that they do for their families. It\u2019s a time where many take the time to appreciate everything their mothers do for them. Sophomore Rhea Nair said, \u201cShe\u2019s just always there for me. I feel like I can talk about anything here. She\u2019s like a best friend.\u201d Junior Shaeleigh Fraser commented, \u201cMy mom is an immigration lawyer and helps people get their green card. She takes the time to learn different languages to make them feel more included. My mom is the absolute best. She has such a caring heart and beautiful soul.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether you\u2019re giving your mom a simple spa day or a bouquet of flowers, it\u2019s important to make them feel special. Mr Cecil, an art teacher at River Hill, had already planned out what he got for his wife. \u201cI had bought my wife a film camera and some earrings. I just wanted to make sure the day was easy and relaxing.\u201d Students at River Hill are also thinking about what they are getting for their mothers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cole Spies, a sophomore, also commented that he \u201cgot [his] mom a candle that says \u2018Sorry you had to deal with the other one.\u2019 I thought it would be funny.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n There are many moments in our lives that people cherish and remember fondly, Mother’s Day is no exception. When asked about a fond memory on Mother\u2019s Day, History teacher Mr. Wall described how \u201cevery mothers day, my mom would take me and my siblings to the zoo. It was this special tradition that we always did, so it holds a special place in my heart.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n With only four days left, many people are scrambling to get their mother the perfect gift. But even if you give her flowers, chocolates or even expensive earrings, the greatest gift a mother could have is the love she has for her family.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By Carolina Alphonso, Staff Writer\u00a0 Mother\u2019s Day was first introduced in 1914 by Wildrow Willson as a way to say thank you to mothers all across the country.
