{obama}

i have loved having a dialogue with my kids about politics this year...

it has been ages since oregon has even mattered in the primaries.

i am a huge supporter of obama. i love his ideas and so many other things about him.

but...what i am loving most this morning is this great picture of him and his own kids. this is so normal. yawning at what is probably another boring event that she has to go to with dad.

so american and just so cute.

another thing i found out last night as my husband was filling out his ballot was that he is a registered republican. what the heck.....we have been married for almost 20 years and i never knew.

that is what is so cool about america.

and on a personal note...even though i am supporting obama....it was such an amazing day yesterday with the kids and chelsea clinton. it had nothing to do with politics. in the eyes of every 6 and 7 year old in that crowd they were meeting a celebrity as well as an amazing role model for young girls.

you rock chelsea.
