On the day of February 12, 1809 a baby was born! This baby was going to make our nation a better place with great laws!
When Lincoln was only nine years old his mom died. He was in agony until his father re-married. He loved his new mother a lot, (stepmother) and called her his angel mother. Also, Lincoln's dad built a log cabin in Kentucky where he lived in most of his life,and did chores on the farm there.
When Lincoln was older he decided to leave the house get a job and get married. He was first a lawyer, then a mail room clerk,then a surveyor,etc. As you see Lincoln's life was probably very busy.
Later he decided to get marrried. One lady rejected his proposal. Then he married Mary Todd. After he married her he ran for Congress, because he hated slavery! He lost by Steven Douglas. When he ran again he won!
In the year of 1809 Lincoln ran for President, and won. He was assasinated in 1865 at Ford's Theatre in Washington, DC. We remember President Lincoln for freeing the slaves and uniting our country once again.

only have to type. You don't have to remember any numbers! Especially when it comes to chatting with long distant friends, and family. I love e-mailing! It is very fun, but you must use it safely. What are your comments on e-mailing
