Triston's history lesson

This weekend I learned a bit of history from my seven year old nephew, Triston.

"I don't have any school on Monday."

"You don't? Why not?"

"It's Arthur Luther King day."

"Hmmm?!? So you get the day off?"

"Yep. He died."

"That's to bad. What else did he do?"

"He gave a speech, rode on a bus, then he died. He was as old as you are."

"Yikes! Did he do anything else?"

Yes, there was much more but I stopped the lesson sometime after Arthur discovered America.

I learned a lot from Triston. Looks like I should have paid more attention in school.
