President's Day!

And the flag is out to honor the great men who have led our great country through the years. This year, I've thought more about President's Day as I'm one of the room mom's in the 3rd grade class. We've been planning an activity for this week, so I've given it a lot more thought than just celebrating that it is a day off from work.



This past summer we went to Mount Rushmore so we learned more about our Presidents there, and also McKay has been learning about the Constitution and US History, so we've had our founding fathers on the brain. There are many interesting facts to know if you are interested. We really do live in a great country, and many very brave men have helped advance our freedoms and rights. I'm really thankful to live in such a country and to honor those men today.

I'm also really thankful for a day off from work! Wa-hoo!
