VOTING

We are very good about exercising our right to vote. And this year was no exception. My husband and I were both home from work so we decided we should all vote together this year.

He found a local voting office close by at an elementary school. It is only a mile away so we walked over together as a family. We brought a Nerf football to pass back and forth and keep the kiddos moving forward through the walk. It worked great and in no time at all we were in the voting booths (no lines). We finished up and our little guy looks all around. We watch him and wonder what is he looking for. We say 'come on, hurry up, let's walk back home now'. To which he responds, "Where is the boat?"

He thought we were walking over to a boat instead of to vote.

I can't even imagine how disappointed he must have been in that confused little head of his.
