Hello Readers, Who - Barack Obama was born on August 4, 1961. His mother's name was Ann and his father's name was Barack Obama, Sr. What - He is our 44th president elected. When- He was elected on November 4, 2008. Where - After he won he gave a speech to a crowd in Chicago's Grant Park. Why - He was elected because a lot of people voted for him and because he motto was "Change We Can Believe In" and "Yes We Can". His inauguration will be in Washington, DC on January 20, 2009. A presidential inauguration means that Barack Obama will put his left hand on the bible and raise his right hand and say these words: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States". All presidents have to do this before thy can start working as our president. Source - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Stat...
Wow, how exciting! Are you learning to read your feet, Aliyah! This is a great skill to have. I have heard that you can do the same thing for your hands.
ReplyDeleteFor example, once I had a bad cough that I couldn't seem to get rid of. So what I did was to rub my hand in the place (almost in the center of the palm) that maps on to my lungs. Do you know that each time I massaged my hand in this place (I think that it was my left hand that I massaged), my cough went away?!? How wonderful is _that_??? :-))))
Love,
Mama Sharon
