I took some cupcakes to my kids' elementary school this morning, my daughter has her birthday tomorrow so a class treat that recognized it was in order.
As I stood in line in the school office a gaggle of youngsters came in and clustered around the counter. They pressed together as an assistant coach broke out a microphone and turned on the PA system He then led the little ones in the national Pledge of Allegiance, the Texas Pledge of Allegiance (yep, they've got one!) and a moment of silence for prayer or whatever. This whole thing was broadcast throughout the school.
Then the PA was turned off and the kids sent back to class.
Some days I really like living here. This was one of them.
