Columbus day


Most of our kids are happy about Columbus day. They are happy to have a day of nothing, no school, no homework, no soccer... most of our kids.

Charlie is not happy that we celebrate Columbus. He tells me that the Indians were here first, so why should we clebrate the guy who took their land away? Out of the mouths of 7 year olds... makes you think.

So true...how can we celebrate someone who "discovered" something already discovered? Our kiddos have school for this "holiday".
