I gave Ella the choice of Rimsky-Korsakov or Grover Cleveland for today's birthday. She chose Grover Cleveland.
Hey, he seemed to be quite a good guy! I'm glad he was the Birthday of the Day, I really didn't know anything about him. Limited government, anti-expansionist, reversing tariffs (though not against income taxes), fighting corruption, his last words were "I have tried so hard to do right." This can give the kids a good answer to the admonition David dishes out when the kids bang their head into something, as they seem to do so frequently: "Careful, or you'll grow up to vote Democrat." ("Sure, how about Grover Cleveland?")
