Do you want to see my favorite Christmas present? I got teary eyed when I opened it. I really don't know why I am so tender hearted about the constitution- but I am. Chay bought this replica of the original constitution for me. It is made out of real parchment paper. Look how small the writing is! I can't wait to frame this-
Every Friday will be FFFF for here on out. Fight for Freedom Friday. If you are the least bit informed (and that doesn't mean just watching CNN) you will know that things are a little unsettling in the United States government (Bush included)...and unfortunately things are taking a dramatic turn away from our founding father's vision and idea of our country...and many are ok with that or many are just sort of comfortable with the changes- not really understanding what is going on- due to misinformation, media, pop culture, keeping up with the Jones', feeling deserving, wanting to be 'bailed out' instead of dealing with poor consequences- self discipline and self reliance has sort of disintegrated the last couple decades-
so...what are you going to do about it? I'm still trying to figure that out...but this is a nice start for April.
ok well...so anyway- happy ffff

I, too, love the Constitution. I think all of our government leadership should be required to read it at least yearly and maybe quarterly. It is almost a religious document, isn't it?
BTW, I haven't forgotten about your homeschooling questions . . .
