Independence Day

Posted in Home Education

One of my favorite parts of Independence Day is NPR's recording of the Declaration of Independence.  We heard in first in 2002 or 2003, in the car, and Sam and I were both weeping on the highway.  There's something about hearing the words read aloud-- the defense of our founding fathers' very shocking decision to have Revolution.

You can access it by going to www.npr.org and clicking on the link to Morning Edition.

May freedom ring!
