At Ahlea and Ethan's school, every mornig the say The Pledge of Allegiance and sing our national anthem. They love to sing this all over the house. We had a reunion over Memorial Day and Grandpa Smith asked me and the kids to sing this at the reunion. Ahlea stood up there with us, but was to affraid to sing. Ethan on the other had held the microphone and belted out the most wonderful rendition of The Star-Spangled Banner. He did an amazing job. I am thankful for this great nation that we live in and for the great school district we live in that gives them the opportunity to learn such a great song.
