So my Super-Catholic relatives sent an email about a "Call to Action" to tell Obama not to rescind the rule that lets anyone in the healthcare industry to not do their jobs because god tells them not to.

This pissed me off, but not enough to actually engage the relatives. Instead, I wrote letters to my senators and to the president supporting his actions. I found that my mom also wrote to Obama as a result of this email, also in opposition to this rule.

Now it is your turn: http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/

Thank Obama for ensuring that we all can get healthcare without the meddling of religion.

I taught pre-K today, and this was up on the wall. I believe it was in honor of MLK's I Have a Dream. I still can't decide on a favorite!


Ut-oh. Just what we need more of. I really enjoy the picture that Anthony drew for this.

I like that Yasmeen is specific with this one. She doesn't just want to be a princess, oh no. She insists on being a horse-riding princess.

Joan here is dreaming big. Haven't you always wanted to touch a special rock?

I bet Tamarian's mom is going to love this one when they send it home! Hopefully Marcus is Mommy's "special" friend and not just a super cool neighbor.

Aww.

Now this one kind of worries me. When Deg goes home, do they lock her in a closet? What has to happen to someone to make their dreams revolve around being in possesion or enjoyment of a window?
