Inauguration Day with my four-yr old

Inauguration Day! What a day! It was a day like any other except for the fact that I was glued to the TV, watching history in the making, our first African American President be sworn in! How awesome and exciting!

Here's a conversation I had with Michael.

Me: Michael, today is a very exciting day! That's the new President of the United States!
Michael: (matching my enthusiasm, screams) Yay!!!!!!!!!
Me: That's our first African American President!
Michael: Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(pause)
Michael: Mama, are you President?
Me: No, I'm your Mama.
Michael: Are those Mamas? (pointing to the TV)
Me: Yes, some of them are Mamas and Daddys and past Presidents and politicians.
Michael: But, Wall-e isn't President. He's a robot.
Me: Yes, Michael, Wall-e is a robot.

He's working it all out.

Go to Obamicon.me where you can insert your picture into an Obama poster. Too much fun. I love Michael's. And I love that I look a bit possessed. Thanks for passing this on, Sharleen.
