O my God, the first time I saw George Washington’s portrait in my first-grade classroom, I mistook him for Martha. And why did he chop down a tree that produced yummy cherries? That 
he told his dad was admirable, but not too bright!
Subsequent presidents also have strained my brain, yet, this Presidents’ Day, I appreciate their service. But OMG, I’m grateful that ultimately, You are in charge!
Ditto!
Haha! Mary, it would be interesting to write the early history of our country, as seen through the eyes of first-graders!
I’m thankful for the personal sacrifices the founding fathers made. It’s a miracle we actually became the USA.
It was a miracle, Janet. The chances of our country’s creation and survival were miniscule! Despite its faults, I am so thankful to be an American 🙂
Thanks for your comment, Janet, and blessings on your Presidents’ Day.
