First off, Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there.
Today, I read a little bit of the history behind Mother's Day.
The lady who creoated Mother's Day and her daughter spent their lives fighting the holiday they created. Why? Because it ended up being for people to make money. Flowers, chocolate, cards, cameras, phones, etc. At one point, her daughter actually threatened to get rid of the holiday.
So, do you think there should no longer be Mother's Day?
I think Mother's Day should stay, because I never get my mom something, I do stuff for her. She says she'd rather me clean the kitchen than get her flowers.
