Four score and seven years ago...

Neels loves history. 
He is currently enamored with Abraham Lincoln 
and his children 
(because they dressed up like soldiers, 
wore swords 
and rode a cart and ponies through the White House.) 
For our church's annual talent show, 
he decided to memorize the Gettysburg Address.
(No, we did not make him do it. 
He shunned several cute poems I suggested 
for they lacked swords,
and he was not about to get on stage without a sword...)
The history teacher is smiling BIG.
