With glowing hearts..........

Maria brought me a beautiful hoodie from the Olympics. It has CANADA written across the front with the zipper dividing the word in half. Landon was trying to read it and was so happy to discover the word was CANADA!!

L: Oh it's CAN-ada!!
You're Canadian, right?

Me: Yes, I am.

L: How is Canada?

Me: It's beautiful and great.

L: What's your Pledge of Allegiance?

Me: There isn't one.

L: What's your special thing, like we have the Statue of Liberty and Paris has the Eiffel Tower, what's in Canada?

Me: CN Tower, highest freestanding tower in the world until 2007.

L: ..asks a few questions about the CN Tower....

L: What's your song like we have "God Bless America?"

Me: O Canada. (And I sing the whole thing to him..'sons' included... and he sat and listened through to the end.)

L: Canada's colors are Black, red and white.

Me: No black.

L: Yes, I saw it on the outline of the maple leaf I colored.

Me: Umkay. (Because how do you argue with that?)
