A Birthday Present for President Lincoln
Today is the 200th birthday of Abraham Lincoln and A thinks that is fantastic. We've been reading a beautifully illustrated children's chapter book about Abe's childhood. When I told A that it was good ol' Abe's b-day, I asked him what we should do to celebrate.
A: I don't know. Maybe we could get him a present.
Me: Oh, really. Like what?
A: Maybe a bulldozer and a crane and a book about trucks.
Me: Hum, interesting idea. And anything else?
A: And a train.
Always thinking of others. I was thinking he'd say something like make a birthday cake or something like that. We built many Lincoln log buildings in Abe's honor today. Here is a cute pictures of the boys and the Lincoln log towers.

So cute! I love the funny things that little kids say! Those pictures are fun too.
Man your baby is growing up sooo fast. Your boys are very cute :)
I didn't even think of getting out the Lincoln logs in honor of President's Day. Way to be on top of things!!
What was the name of the book you were reading?
