Field trips, field trips!!! I think we went on our last one yesterday. We headed here to see this.
It wasn't your average play about Anne Frank and the Holocaust. It was more of a play rolled in with a history lesson and multimedia event. It was fabulous!!!!
About 20 of us took off to see it yesterday morning and I believe it made an impact on the kids. I know it did me! My friend and I had to fight back tears and do the whole blinking thing in order to not completely lose it!
Can you imagine hiding for 22 months of your life? No fresh air, no sunshine, no wind blowing on your face, not even smelling the rank smell that is emitting from under our house! yeah, I know that's gross, we had a pipe come undone and the water hasn't dried up yet... But can you imagine??? Or not being able to drive a car, buy things from a store, having a curfew or not being able to go across state lines??
The one thing we need to do is pay attention to what is happening around us. History is history, we can't change it BUT we can learn from it and make sure it doesn't happen again. If one man with twisted views can achieve murdering 6 million people then someone else with the right propaganda could achieve it also.
You know, there maybe one more field trip that we need to make...click here. That's if every ones game for it.

Dreama,
I'm up for a trip to the museum. Not sure we can fit it in this year but I think it is something we should do. Keep me posted.
