Cute Things the Kids are Doing...

• Jimmy has been using the horizontal wood blinds as a road for his matchbox cars. Really, it's genius and a very efficient use of road space.
• The other night Kurt went to the high school football game and as we were approaching the stadium (you could see the lights from the road). Jimmy started yelling "football, football" - he warmed his sports loving dad's heart.
• Julia has decided to be Ariel (the Mermaid) for Halloween, but has already picked out her costumes for next year (Wonderwoman) and the following year (Princess Lea from Star Wars). We'll see if she sticks to this.
• Last night at dinner a Barak Obama campagin worker rang our doorbell. After I came back I told Kurt that it was an "Obama" campainer - Julia asked if it was "Rrr-ack Obama." It is obvious that there is too much polictical stuff going on right now for a 4 year old to say that. This isn't as funny as my neighbor's son's diatribe on McCain. During cartoons, he turns to his dad and says "Daddy, John McCain is going to take away a woman's right to choose. But if she puts on her listening ears, he'll give it back in 2 days." Seriously.
