This Christmas, 2012, we can remember that our founders fought on this day
for freedom and liberty for all.
As we stay in our homes,
we can remember that the Continental Army
marched in the snow and the sleet so that
their children and posterity could be free.
As we stay in our homes,
we can remember that the Continental Army
marched in the snow and the sleet so that

We must remember their courage.
Whatever we face as Americans today,
they would have faced for US.
they would have faced for US.
