Mark's parents asked us to meet them at the Lincoln Museum in Springfield. Mark and I went when Nathan was a baby, but we hadn't been there since. The museum is really neat...the kids even enjoyed it.
Here's Nicholas with his Grandpa.
We even walked around Lincoln's neighborhood. It was a beautiful fall day.
I found an old book at a garage sale.... If You Grew Up With Abraham Lincoln , we started reading it tonight. The kids both enjoyed it and *I think* are understanding about Lincoln's childhood. What amazes me is that he was completely self-educated....less than 1 year of formal schooling...not even Law School..yet he was such an amazing writer and orator.
