President's Day is the third Monday in February. It was chosen to be on that day because George Washington's,our first president, birthday is January 22.  Since Abraham Lincoln's birthday is on February 12 many choose to honor him as well on this day.

As their have been many great presidents many people wish to remember all presidents on this day.
I have decided to feature presidents who are on Mount Rushmore and on our currency.
I have also decided to feature our current president.
