Spoken Like a True American

I've been on a Revolutionary War kick lately, reading books, watching documentaries, and listening to music centered on that time period.  The other day, Eliza was asking me about a documentary I had from the library and I was telling her about it.  The conversation went something like this:

"This is about when our country separated from Great Britain."

"We became our own country?"

"Yes."

"So we aren't a part of Great Britain anymore?"

"No."

"YEAH!!!!!!"
