Voting

Dennis accompanied me to the polls on Tuesday, correctly reading and pointing out to me "Romney" on the ballot. He even helped me draw the line on the ballot. We were sorely disappointed to discover that our candidate did not win. I couldn't shake my sadness (and fear for Dennis' future) the following morning. Dennis agreed that we should pray for God to work in the President's heart. And then Dennis wrote me a note for my office that said "good day and good job". He said it was to cheer me up since he could tell I was having a tough day. I posted it in my office as soon as I got there after dropping him off at school.

Yesterday he got on "yellow" again at school for playing 'rock, paper, scissors, gun, bomb, and water' (I may not have the last three things exactly right). He says they just got a little too loud. He is most assuredly one hundred percent boy! But he's a kind-hearted little soul. When we went to vote, he took pocketfuls of peppermints and gave them out to the poll workers. They were delighted with his thoughtfulness, as was I.
