"I HAVE A DREAM"

The kids and I just watched the re-broadcast of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s speech from 1963!
It brought tears to my eyes. Absolutely POWERFUL!

We studied a little about the history and A seems to really get it! The oppression, the inequality, the injustice! It's amazing how children get it so much more than adults do! A said "all this because of the color of their skin????".

YES!

We're very excited about tomorrow's inauguration of OUR 44th President. We're going to watch it on tv and have a little celebration. It's means so much, on so many levels. I want it to stay in the kids hearts and minds forever.

DREAMS are the things that keep us moving forward! CHANGE is what gives us new perspective and hope for the future! It's a beautiful thing!
