Our oldest grandson (nine years old) is homeschooled this year for the first time. And I have the happy responsibility to teach him American history. As a result, he will know more about the Founding Fathers, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution than he would ever learn in a public school (or university).

My six year old (homeschooled) is learning the Gettysburg Address to recite for a History Project Fair coming up. He is tiny for his age, and has a speech therapist who comes biweekly to the house, but he is doing an incredible job on learning the speech. It’s only 11 sentences, and he is on #3 this week. Big words in there, too...

Yes, but I’ll bet you’re going to short him on the wonders of Karl Marx and Bill Clinton.
