This is history right before our eyes. The news came early Monday morning that Bin Laden is dead. After almost 10 years since the World Trade Towers attack on 9-11 of 2001, Bin Laden was found in a compound in Pakistan. He was killed by gun fire by United States Navy Seals and then buried at sea so as not to take the chance of having a shrine erected for the man known to be the leader of the Muslim terrorist group, Al Qaeda.
How did Americans respond? By dancing in the streets. College students and other Americans traveled for hours to dance in triumph at the very spot of terror almost 10 years ago.
It may not be written in the history books yet. But, it will be. We are living and watching history!
My daughter, Eliana, fell in love with elephants at the age of 2. Watching her with her elephants made me realize the connection with learning: Big elephant ears help you learn by listening and an elephant never forgets! There are countless other analogies - Come and open up your elephant ears and never forget to learn large with my daughter and me!
