It means Freedom, courage, hope. We are great people. Are soldiers who fight and risk their lives fighting for us and all people who do we all respect them. In my family, I have six people who fought in World War 2, Vietnam, Korean War 1, Korean War 2 and it means a lot to me.

What’s really cool about America is our cities, oceans, National Parks, our Flag, our president he makes things better for us. America is amazing to me and I love it so much. America is one of the best and honored people here. America makes great laws so nobody gets hurt or treated wrong. George Washington led the Civil War. Great people like Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr., they fought for slavery of African Americans. America is a great place. Our schools educate us to be smart people like doctors, presidents. The Lincoln Monument, Mt. Rushmore is with the 4 Fathers.
America is a Bravery Place to be. Our White House is where the President lives. America has good and trained Police Officer so bad things happen. People have Jobs to make electricity, fuel, and money for food, and money for the stores, people banks country and states.
We all care for each other and we all want a cure for cancer. We all went through bad times like when the Twin Towers were destroyed and The Boston Marathon. Boston Strong. There are so many cool things about America and I like it a lot. We have cool places like the Statue of Liberty and a Museum of Ellis Island with what clothes they had and what they bring, and we have a Museum of Diamonds, Gold, Emerald, Rocks and Crystals.
