Flag Holder

I love hearing what the boys did at school during the day. One day in particular I was asking Jameson what his job was at school. He proudly proclaimed that he was the flag holder. I asked him what everyone else did while he was holding the flag. He said they sing Yankee Doodle, The Grand Old Flag and they say the Pledge of Allegiance. I was a bit surprised and wanted to see if he knew the Pledge. Sure enough he was able to recite it, almost word for word. Stellan also started saying it in a bit of a jumbled up way. Even though it was so cute I was a bit disappointed that my CANADIDAN children were reciting the American Pledge of Allegiance. Apparently I'll have to do some homeschooling and get the kids to learn O Canada.

That was THE BEST way to start off my week! How absolutely adorable. I wish I could sqeeze them both. Love the Jack-o-lantern shirts BTW!

Teach them "God save the Queen" instead.
