Today is Abraham Lincoln’s birthday.
It’s also my little Daniel’s, he is a big 8 years old today!

In honor of Lincoln’s birthday, Homeschool Freebie of the Day has a couple of audios for us today. The first is Lincoln’s “Farewell Speech” and the second is about his presidency and the Civil War.
These are available today only.
