It is a day when children honor their mothers with cards,gifts and flowers. First observance in Philadelphia in 1907,it is based on suggestions by Julia Ward Howe in 1872 and by Anna Jarvis in 1907.Although it wasnt celebrated in the U.S. until 1907,there were days honoring mothers even in the days of ancient Greece. In those days,however,it was Rhea,the Mother of the gods that was given honor. Later,in the 1600s,in England there was an annual celebration called “Mothering Sunday.” It was celebrated during June, on the fourth Sunday ,the servants,who generally lived with their employers, were encouraged to return home and honor their mothers. It was traditional for them to bring a special cake along to celebrate the occasion. In the U.S.,in 1907 Ana Jarvis,from Philadelphia,began a campaign to establish a national Mothers Day. Jarvis persuaded her mothers church in Grafton,West Virginia to celebrate Mothers Day on the second anniversary of her mothers death, the 2ed Sunday of May. The next day Mothers Day was also celebrated in Philadelphia,Jarvis and others began a letter-writing campaign to ministers,businessmen, and politicians asking to establish a national Mothers Day. They were successful. President Woodrow Wilson, in 1914,made the official announcement recognizing Mothers Day as a national celebration that was to be held each year on the 2nd Sunday of May.Many other countries of the world celebrate their own Mothers Day at different times throughout the year.

Because of the lack of study material,Zheng needs to spend hours and days looking for textbooks for the visually disabled and copying them, while it may take only five minutes for a sighted person to order a plain English textbook from Amazon.In his parents eyes,Zheng has been a sensible,independent and decisive man from a young age.

I enjoy exchanging my ideas with yoursThe first thing I want to tell you is that if the boys are calling you names it is their fault, not yours. Boys, at your age, are different from girls. They are trying to prove that they are manly and then often do this by picking on someone who cant really fight back. This is, of course, wrong but it happens. In general, the boys know they are bigger and stronger than you are, so they can make fun of you and make you cry and then laugh about it. If you let them see that they are hurting you, they will only do it more. It isnt that they want to hurt you; they simply want to make themselves feel superior（优越的）. Its stupid, but it is common. In English we say “ sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me.” Canadian children learn this from their mothers because the same thing that is happening to you in China also happens here. The best ways of getting the boys to stop calling your names is to simply ignore them, knowing that the names cant hurt you and that the boys are being stupid. If you can laugh at them they will get tired of trying to make you cry and theyll give up. It wont be easy,but,trust me, it will work. There is also something else working in your favor and that is that you are growing up and the boys are beginning to notice you as a young woman. I suspect some of them actually like you and are making fun of you just to get your attention. Again, its stupid but it happens. In reality, you can control this situation by not letting them see you getting hurt. Laugh at them,tell them theyre acting lik
