Thank you Sarah!

Thank goodness for Sarah... If it wasn't for her diligence, we wouldn't even have Thanksgiving! Many people enjoy this holiday every year for many reasons; delicious food, friends and family and football of course :) As we learned in our story this week, Sarah Morton fought hard to save this holiday. She convinced Lincoln to make Thanksgiving a national holiday.



If there was another holiday that was going to be taken away which holiday would you fight to save?! why?

  5. I'd fight for New Years because on New Years Eve you stay up until midnight. It's a national holiday to celebrate the new year.
