Tax Day Tea Party

Tyler participated in his 2nd protest. This time it was the Tax Day Tea Party that was held downtown on April 15th. Talk about an active lessons in civics. He was yelling "live free or die" and carrying his "America Sold Out Since 1913" poster. While he has just brushed the surface of this issue in our conversations he knows enough to want to be active to make a difference. It was awesome as he was hanging out with a few of his friends holding signs and feeling very active in making a positive difference for the country. This is the way leaders are created. Showing them things that can and should be done to make a change. To be an active participant in politics and the community. Awesome time. I have video, but need to learn how to upload and once I get that figured out I'll do that and I should be getting photos from another mom that was there and we'll post them as soon as we get them.
