Good morning!

248 years ago, ordinary men and women stepped out of their homes and did selfless, extraordinary things for us - their Posterity!

I hope you encourage friends, family, and coworkers to take a moment to reflect on the heroism and sacrifices of those brave men and women who turned out on April 19th!

May Liberty Increase!

Happy Patriot's day! Does anyone have a recommended reading for today? I am going to talk with my kids about the significance of this day and I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction with an article or some kind of summary.
