A motherless child

Mommy went to Heaven, but I need her here today.

My tummy hurts and I fell down, I need her right away.

Operator can you tell me how to find her in this book?

Is heaven in the yellow part, I don't know where to look.

I think my daddy needs her too, at night I hear him cry.

I hear him call her name sometimes, but I really don't know why.

Maybe if I call her, she will hurry home to me.

Is Heaven very far away, Is it across the sea?

She's been gone a long, long time, she needs to come home now!

I really need to reach her, I simply don't know how.

Help me find the number please, is it listed under "Heaven"?

I can't read these big big words, as I am only seven.

I'm sorry operator, I didn't mean to make you cry,

Is your tummy hurting too, or is there something in your eye?

04.22.2010 Day 278

First day of my son's 5th grade class trip. First stop was at Jamestown Settlement.

History Lesson from historyisfun.org

In 1607, 13 years before the Pilgrims landed in Massachusetts, a group of 104 English men and boys began a settlement on the banks of Virginia's James River. They were sponsored by the Virginia Company of London, whose stockholders hoped to make a profit from the resources of the New World. The community suffered terrible hardships in its early years, but managed to endure, earning the distinction of being America's first permanent English colony.
