Christian woke up early in the morning.
Like, all the time. The end.
No, really... Christian woke up early.
Ryan told him to go back to bed or else he'd have to take a nap.
Christian replied "I can't take a nap later! We're going to get a new captain, remember?"
Ryan looked at him in still-sleep-mode confusion.
Christian said "Mom told us we have to go boating today and get a better captain."
Ryan... still confused.... hang on... wait for it...
"OOOHHHH!!! Voting! Yes, a new PRESIDENT! Gotcha!"
Once we pulled up to the courthouse I explained to CK that we keep our vote choice private. Emphasis there.
Apparently, that memo missed his inbox.
AS SOON AS WE GOT TO THE POLL BOOTH, he was saying in a definitely-not-quiet-voice "Let's get rid of the bad guy! Did you pick Romney? Is everyone here picking Romney? Do they know they other guy is bad? They should know!"
Huuuuuuush, dude. People around here are going to assume we're rich Republicans... they'll sit behind my car, force me to hit them, and then sue us. We'll end up eating Spam-ghetti at the shelter. Then we'll have to vote for the bad guy next time. That's how it always happens, I hear.
We arrived at the courthouse (after releasing our turtle), so it was already a bit of a solemn day. (aaand that reveals how old this story is... or maybe the whole "voting thing" was a clue. but, whatevs.) So, when we left after not "boating", the kids were irked...
Polls instead of wakeboards? Long lines of impatient sweaty people instead of the wide open lake? Who the heck are these people and where are the cool parents I signed up for?
Yep. Sorry to burst your bubble, sport.
Its too cold and its voting-with-a-"V" season.
Here is Tay feeling jipped when she realized what was going on:
Whenever CK comes up with different sayings, they usually become our usual sayings. So, from this point on, our family has referred to voting as boating. We also become aggritated sometimes. Then there is one of my faves "Who matters" (a smash up of who cares and why does it matter). I also really like "ear picks" (Q-Tips). Sometimes his words just make more sense. Have Webster give CK a call the next time he is printing out a new dictionary.
Kids are cute. Especially when they're your own. They make me laugh every.single.day.
