Tomorrow is Martin Luther King Day and I thought I would share an excerpt of one of his famous speeches. I am grateful to him and to all who sacrificed to bring civil rights to everyone in our country. I especially love the part where he says "I have a dream that little white boys and girls and little black boys and girls will join hands as brothers and sisters...". Civil Rights activists who went before me paved the way for that dream to become a reality in my household. A little white boy and a little black girl do join hands as brother and sister in our home and we are so grateful!
Our dream. Thank God Almighty...Regardless of how you voted in the last election, I think we can all agree that Tuesday will be an historic day for our country. I can't tell you how excited my little girl is to see little girls who look like her living in the White House.
Happy MLK Day!
Wow, nothing like a little perspective. You are an amazing Mom. We love you.
