Happy Birthday, Abe!

When we went to the library on Tuesday, the librarian mentioned that we should come back on Thursday for cake for Lincoln's birthday. I didn't think Landon was paying much attention, but later that day while we were eating lunch, he asked me, "Whose birthday is it?"

"I don't know," I said.

"It's Abraham Lincoln's birthday!" Landon informed me. Then he asked about giving Abe presents and having cake for his birthday. So of course, I felt that we'd better show up today for the cake. We each enjoyed a little slice of Lincoln's 200th birthday cake, and the librarian gave Landon a Lincoln coloring sheet, too.

Happy birthday, Abe!

Abe would have been pleased that Landon remembered him.
