Queen Nzinga

Kyleigh's class, along with a few others, did a living history museum.  Each student chose someone they had studied in history to represent in the museum.  Kyleigh chose Queen Nzinga from Ngola.  She is well known for a stand she took by refusing to sit at the feet of another King when he didn't offer her a chair.  Instead she motioned for a servant to sit underneath her to serve as her chair so she would be sitting at the same height as the other King.  Lucky for Kyleigh she has the best Dad in the history of the universe.  He sacrificed his knees and back to provide the best prop in the history of living history museums.  Kyleigh also did her own research and wrote a report.  She had to have her report memorized and as people walked around she had to repeat the entire report for each person.  She did a great job as Queen Nzinga (and Rusty wasn't half bad as a throne).
