A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow.

Family Tips: Free Family Fun for MLK Day (Monday, January 21st)

 
Tomorrow is MLK Day, the day that America devotes to celebrating the life and contributions of Martin Luther King Jr. According to Wikipedia, "Martin Luther King, Jr. (January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968) was an American clergyman, activist, and prominent leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement. He is best known for his role in the advancement of civil rights using nonviolent civil disobedience.King has become a national icon in the history of American progressivism" The truth is he was that and so much more. Every American owes Dr. King a debt of gratitude. Because of his dream and his efforts, America finally began to live up to its creed that, "all men are created equal".

Live Martin Luther King Jr.'s Dream on MLK Day!


Dr. King had a dream that, "little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers." Live the dream by taking your kids to one of the free events going on in Pittsburgh tomorrow.
Below is a link to a post I did last year that includes links t many of the events.
