Well, there was certainly no shortage of discussion about the election this year.  By 4th grade, Zach and all of his friends were pretty into it… politics was apparently a topic of discussion everywhere from the lunchroom to the 4-square court, and everyone was making badges supporting their candidate of choice out of the post-it notes in their desks.  By the evening of election day, even Meg was saying her "Mom-Ney" and "Bama" to fit in with the crowd.  It did get to a point that evening at dinner that I actually thought I'd rather be watching political ads on TV than listening to the chanting at the table… and that is saying something!
All that said, however, I am grateful every time we have an opportunity to vote – it is a blessing, a priviledge, and a responsibility – and I hope the kids continue to get excited about being involved!
