Thursday evening I was telling my oldest son (5 yo) about the birth of our country and he kept frowning whenever I mentioned Great Britain. Turns out he thought Great Britain was some guy that lived across the ocean. I just assumed he would magically know what it was. (my bad)

I tell my kids about the true meaning of Christmas, Memorial Day, Thanksgiving, Easter as well as Independence Day and other subjects. I try to instill ‘pride of country’ in my kids but soon I’m going to have to tell them about slavery and the raw deal the American Indian got.
