January 15, 1929- April 4, 1968

RIP Martin Luther King, Jr.
I'm sure you'll be in the thoughts of many at tomorrow's Inauguration.

I spent the entire day with my kiddos trying to avoid the dreaded cabin fever of mid-January. We filled the day with many activities. I also played teacher and taught a lesson on Martin Luther King Jr. We listened to excerpts of
"I Have A Dream" and did a worksheet focusing on our own dreams.

"...I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal... I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character..."

Sara and Noah both wrote down something to the extent of...
"I have a dream that people will be happy."

I couldn't agree more.
