Happy Birthday Dr. Martin Luther King, JR.

As most of you may know, today we honor the birth, legacy, and passing of an amazing human being whose life was dedicated to justice and equality for oppressed people.  Why? Because history clearly demonstrated the need for the essence of his meaningful work and sacrifice which is equally as important today.  As we go about the important job of raising children, please remember “you” are their first teacher.  Whether we send a positive message about others or toxic, our children are the sponges that will absorb our teachings.  It is critically important to teach children about differences and to teach them acceptance and tolerance. Believe it or not, for the success of humanity our world is depending on you. Rest In Peace Dr. King.
