" I have a dream today"

Today I took the time to make sure my kids knew why they had the day off from school. To make certain that they didn't think it was a teacher work day or snow day but the celebration of the life and legacy of a great American.

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that even at a young age they both were very well informed about Martin Luther King Jr. I read them a story about his life and we shared one of my favorite quotes "Faith is taking the first step, even when you don't see the whole staircase". Only fourteen words but such a powerful message.
