Quote of the evening: Carter on the Founding Fathers

Spencer and Carter are both working on famous american projects at school. They got to talking about everyone they were learning about. Here is a piece of that conversation.
Spencer: We were talking about George Washington, but for this project we have to pick an African American. [February is Black History Month] I chose Rosa Parks. Is anyone in your class studying Rosa Parks?
Carter: Yah, we have a Rosa Parks. We also have George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and someone is also going to be Thomas S. Monson.
Spencer: Do you mean Thomas Jefferson?
Carter: Oh, yah, it's Thomas Jefferson.

For a minute, I was impressed that the school was including American church leaders. Oh, well, maybe Carter will make sure he is included! :)
