Okay, so it's not quite what you think... but pretty funny, nonetheless!
The Saturday before the election, I was driving with Austin & there were Prop 8 supporters & protesters on all 4 corners of the intersection!! Austin asked why those people were in the street w/ signs & I said, "Oh, it's just because of the election coming up." He asked what an election was & I told him it was when people went & picked who was going to be the next president... His response was "and who will get married?????" Uhhh... he's FOUR and a HALF!! How on earth did he know that!! I'm only guessing that it was something he saw on TV or heard on the radio.... It just served to remind me how impressionable kids are & how much is it is our responsibility to be sure the information they receive is the information we feel is best for them to have!
Never, ever thought I'd be having a political discussion with my 4 1/2 year old!! I'm sure it's ONLY the beginning.
