February is over and so are all the Black History Programs. We did a program at church last Sunday night and I did a program at the library on Tuesday night, and a book club at the Martin Luther King Jr center on Wednesday. I love watching the children learn and their reactions when they get it! It is so sad that they do not know any history beyond Harriett Tubman and MLK. I talked about the Four little Girls in the 16th Street Church Bombing in Birmingham 1963 and they were amazed. We read "The Watson's Go to Birmingham 1963 and they loved it. These were 4th through about 8th grade girls and boys. Tell your children and grand children or children that you are around your history and our history. They will benefit from it.
The photo's were taken at the library Jada is on the front row. I have other photo's with her helping out in a story. I will post later.
On the home front all is well with us. The city is gearing up for Spring break. It's suppose to be 77 today but it cools down at night. Angela has accepted a new job which affords her the opportunity to do a great deal of traveling and she is really excited. Keep her in your prayers as she embarks on this new adventure in her life. Remember to pray for the family. Maryjewel and I set aside Monday's for prayer, join us as we pray for the Pierce Family.
