Election 2008
My first grader, Waklee, was learning about elections and voting in class. I got a chuckle when she informed me that her class held a vote. The results were: Obama 16, McCain 6, Nader 0. It was entertaining to hear a 6 year old speak the name Nader. I was proud of my little voter for raising her hand with the meager 6, but I think her teacher persuaded the kids a bit when she said they would have a party if Obama wins.......not too sure if I approve of what the teacher is putting into my kids head either????? Waklee also said that out in the playground the older kids were chanting Obama sucks and McCain rules. I really have enjoyed this election but am also really looking forward to it being over and done with! Oh and did I mention that the only good thing about Oregon politically is that we get our ballots mailed to us, it is so sweet!

Makayla had a vote in her school today. The overall win was McCain!! That's what we get for living in a red state and that's what you get for living in a blue one! :)
I dido everything you said. I told you the other night maybe I am a little Utah mormon girl but the mud slinging here is horrible. I have not been impressed. I decided today I am honking at every Mccain sign I see. Here is to being peculiar again!!!!
Waklee,
