Presidents

A couple of weeks ago Mary was up at school with me. Some of my papers had fallen out of my President's Day file. She said, "Look Mommy, it's George Washington!" I was shocked! I have first graders who don't even know who he is (and we've talked about him for 2 weeks)! So when we got home I showed her a $1 bill and asked her to tell daddy who it was and she did. Then we got out a $5 bill and she said, "Abraham Lincoln." She just amazes me with how quickly she picks up on things and remembers them.
