What did we learn on Family Tree Day?

1. We are very blessed with many modern conveniences, such as indoor toilets, running water, and comfortable shoes.

2. We are thankful that we do not have to walk 2 miles to school each day.

3. Our ancestors came from many different countries and from 4 of the 7 continents.

4. If is fun to look at old things.

5. We liked playing games, but we missed our playground balls.

6. People in the 1800's worked very hard and did not throw away as much as we do.

7. Some of us enjoyed it more than others.
