George and Abe

In keeping with Presidents' Day, Andrew has been learning about George Washington and Abraham Lincoln this week. On the way home today, I asked him what he learned about George Washington. His first remark was that he's an old man. When I asked him what he did, he told me he sat in his house and read the paper.

Sophia joined Andrew yesterday because she didn't have school. As they learned about Abraham Lincoln and his nickname "Honest Abe", Sophia commented that she sometimes has trouble telling the truth because then you get in trouble. She also said that Andrew doesn't tell the truth all the time and therefore doesn't get in trouble.
