Good Stuff!

On monday we were having Family Home Evening and while we were getting started Joe asked the kids who's birthday it was. It wasn't any of ours so I was even a little stumped. Then Kambree piped in and said "George Washington's, we talked about it in school." It was so fun for her to be the one who knew the answer and to know it was his birthday I thought that was so awesome. They talk about the early days of the U.S. a lot and talk about George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson etc. Kyle has already learned about the Boston Tea Party and the Daughters of Liberty. He knows what minute men are and the British Soliders and sometimes I find him pretending to be a minute man it is so cool. I don't remember learing that much about history at that age and I know they didn't learn that much about it last year. I am so far really enjoying the education they are getting at the charter schoool they are at.


And Kyle memorizes a quote every week in his class here is an example of one of them "Every good act is charity. A man's true wealth hereafter is the good that he does in this world to his fellows." --Mohammad


Good sutff!!
