The American Flag

Deciding who created the American Flag is hard because there is no proof. I think that the idea for the stars and stripes was Betsy Ross idea because it said that she is more likely to. But there are receipts too show that Francis Hopkinson created the nations first flag. In the end i think that Francis Hopkinson had the honor to create Americas first flag.

Red Ribbon Week 2015

Red ribbon week is not about dressing up and wearing fun colored socks. It’s about making the decision of what your going to say Yes or No. I’ve learned growing up that drugs are bad for you. Drugs could kill you or mess you up in the head. Some people do drugs to make them happy but your taking a risk to kill yourself. I hope that everybody makes the right decision when it comes to drugs. I know what my answer is do you?image

 

 

Colonial Life

February 18, 1648

Today was stressful and hard. I had to work all day long. Folding clothes and washing dishes was the easiest thing I did. Today I also got to make a batch of soap. Some of the kids were sick so I made some yummy soup for them they really like it. I moved their beds close to the fire so they would stay warm. I started making some blankets but I didn’t finish them today. My church gave me a gift it was a beautiful basket full of pecans.I taught some little kids how to say a couple words. I finally went to bed. But I wonder what tomorrow will bring.
