Dream a Little Dream

I have a dream that one day, on the golden beaches of Hawaii, the son of my in-laws and the eldest daughter of my parents will be able to sit down together at the table of relaxation.
I have a dream that my three little children will one day live in a happy, healthy home of their own where they will not be cared for by the labours of their mother but by the labours of their own.
I have a dream today.
I have a dream that one day every paper shall be marked, every report card shall be written, the sentence fragment will be made complete, and the run-ons will be remediated, and the glory of the English Language shall be revealed, and I will live happily ever after.

Today's class:
  • In-class essay - 40 minutes
  • Vocab test Unit 6
  • MLK I Have a Dream video and speech

Homework: Read The Happy Life, by Bertrand Russell (page 317) and The Singer Solution to World Poverty (page 319). Actually, reading that last article will basically ruin any plans to go to Hawaii ever - you'll see what I mean!

Off to love those children while they still abide with me!
