Alabama News Updated: Mother’s Day may have been a few weeks ago, but we wanted to share a special Mother’s Day story that people are talking about in Pike Road. A Pike Road Elementary School student saved his Mother’s Day gift, with the help from his school bus driver. When 7-year-old Charlie Hall left school on the Friday before Mother’s Day, he had a personal gift for his mother. Charlie handmade a clay flower pot for his mother, and his plan was to give it to her for Mother’s Day. Before Charlie could get off the bus, he dropped the precious gift.
