Happy Birthday, America!
(and a free patriotic printable!)
I love my country.
I'm proud of the men and woman, both at home and abroad who endeavor to embrace and defend her ideals.
And
I'm ashamed and saddened by the increasing number of people who have forgotten, or were never taught, what she stands for.
Do you remember? Do your kids know?
Here are a few resources to help us remember.
Ever read the Constitution?
How about the Bill of Rights?
(you might be surprised what it says!)
Interested in what the men who inspired these documents believed about freedom? about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?
You can read their thoughts, in their own words, here...
This great site is where I found this quote from Patrick Henry.
What's a birthday without presents?
