Pennsylvania with the Kids

We wandered east last week to the city of brotherly love.
We wandered into corn fields in quieter corners of our land,
among corn sheaves and the setting sun, to play soccer with a friend. 
 We wandered east to get to know some great women and men.
We studied battles won, and battles lost.
We talked about what is worth fighting for: 
Freedom for all men, women, and children.
 We talked and walked, (and walked)
to live and learn, 
and turn the pages of history.
 We sought to make our story come alive, and their story too.
Because, We the People have a lot to learn.
