HAPPY BIRTHDAY GEORGE WASHINGTON
MetamoraPatter
Today is the day we celebrated the birthday of the first President of the United States, George WAshington when I was growing up in the 1940's and the 1950's. February 22 was a special day in our Grade School. We were reminded of the importance of always telling the truth, as in, "I cannot tell a lie, Father. It was I who cut down the cherry tree."
And we were taught to appreciate the lives of the brave men who fought for our liberation from the King of England. Every human being who gave his life for the freedom of another human being is worth being remembered and respected. And the leaders of those men are to be thanked. THANK YOU PRESIDENT WASHINGTON. WE REMEMBER HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
