Today is President’s Day and a time to
ponder on our country’s honorable and gallant Commander-in-Chief’s that have
led our country through good and bad times. The United States of America is a
great nation. We all need to be respectful of it; the land, the people, the
buildings. One unsettling aspect of this
day is the fact that many people do not know much about our President’s.
American history is no longer in the forefront of educational instruction, so
here is a list of our Presidents from Wikipedia:
Take heed and be mindful of this day. As
George H.W.Bush said in this State of the Union Address in 1990: “You are our
living link to the past. Tell your (children) and grandchildren the story of
the struggles waged, at home and abroad. Of sacrifices made for freedom’s sake.
And tell them your own story as well because (everybody) has a story to tell.”
And for the future – there are many other
days this month that call attention to unusual subjects. Some are really
strange; others would be fun to learn about. Here is an informative website for
you to pursue. http://holidayinsights.com/moreholiday/february.htm
Did you know the Violet is for
February. Though spring will not be here for a while, always stop to smell the flowers,
where ever they are. And keep on creating your Family Museum. The days will
soon be getting longer and warmer, so before you get wrapped up in all the
activities spring offers, keep going through those boxes and save, protect and
display.
"Keep all special thoughts and memories for lifetimes to come. Share these keepsakes with other to inspire hope and build from the past, which can bridge to the future." Mattie Stepanek
