The Other King

Donny's teacher defiantly spent time last week covering Martin Luther King, Jr.  Donny came home Friday with two booklets he made about Dr. King.  Over the past three days we have had to gather and read Donny's booklets. Once my son is aware of a celebration he gives it all he's got.  We were going to honor Dr. King whether we wanted to or not.  This morning while Big Daddy and I were having our coffee, Donny asked if today was the official Marting Luther King holiday. We confirmed that today was indeed the day.  Donny suggested the entire family dress up like the Kings and paint our faces brown to honor Dr. King.  We applauded the suggestion and somehow managed to change the subject.  Wouldn't that be a great family photo?  What can I say? The boy loves a costume.
