Election Day Smile

Need a smile?  Just keep reading. 

The Scene:  our living room; 6:00 a.m.; Annie sitting on her little potty, having just finished telling me a story about her friend Levi who tried to take all his clothes off at school yesterday.

K:  That's a really funny story.  Hey, before we go to school, we are going to go vote this morning.
A:  Vote?
K: Yes, we are going to go stand in line, and then Mommy and Daddy are going to press some buttons on a screen and vote for president.
A: Why are you going to be president?
K: I'm not going to be president, I'm going to vote for president and tell everybody who I want to be president.
A: Can we take our clothes off?
K: No, that would probably not be a very good idea.
A: Are we going to go swimming?
K: No, why do you think we are going to go swimming?  Oh, did you think I said boat?  I didn't say boat, I said vote, with a "V."  vvv vvv vote.
A:  Are we going to go fishing?
K: No, we aren't going to go fishing.  And I didn't say boat, I said vote, with a "V." vvv vvv vote.
A: Can Sadie go on the boat?
K: No, I don't think she would like it.
A: Daddy, we are going boating!
K:  No, we are going voting!  There are NO boats.
A: Why are we going?
K: Because we need to vote to be good citizens.
A: Are we going to wear life jackets?

Sigh...
