I remember Dick and Jane - yes and "See Spot Run, Run Spot run, Run, run, run. Run must have been the word for the day. I did find a Dick and Jane book at a garage sale and bought it right away. So I still have a Dick and Jane book. The grandkids thought it was a hoot!!!! Our little neighbor boy turned three in June and can count to twenty in French and ten in German (he's just learning German) and of course, his English is impecable. No use to read him Dick and Jane!!!!! The kids are so far advanced than we were. I do think we are smarter though!!!!!! Thanks for the memory! And your door hanging was so sweet. What a great way for a child to come to school! Edie

PS - I wonder what would happen if we took a week of our school days and compared them literally to today's school days.
