In 8th grade history we have been tracking the days of the voyage of the Mayflower from its original departure on September 6th. Each day we add one more (or three on Monday) to our number in the center of our whiteboard. Friday was "Day 21". As the one student changed the number from 20 to 21 she commented, "I would have been dead by now!" All of us laughed. It really does make you think about what these people of faith endured to be able to freely live their faith here in the New World.
