Ella's Political Training

UPDATE....
On Sunday at the Susan G Komen Race for the Cure Ella's (and maybe mine a little too) Dream came true. She got to meet her President... Bobby Bones. He was very nice to her and she was very happy to meet him. She is more convinced than ever that he is cool enough to be the President.

To recognize the political atmosphere and in trying to teach Ella new party tricks I have been teaching her who the president is and who the next one will be. So every once in a while I quiz her... "Ella who is the President? and who is going to be the next president?" The other day we were watching the Obama-mercial and so I asked, Hey Ella who is the President?" And with a wry smile she looked at me and said "Bobby Bones"* and then just started laughing like she new how funny she was. I don't think I have laughed that hard in a long time.



*Bobby Bones is a local radio DJ that we listen to every morning on the way to school/work.
Maybe I should start listening to NPR.

Halloween I'm Back.....

Here are some preliminary Halloween Pictures. I dropped Ella off at Daycare this morning dressed as Cinderella so, needless to say we were both big hits. Ella's Pink hair was very confusing to some of the Kids. They wanted to make sure it would come off, and she wouldn't have pink hair forever. She is Dee Dee Doodle Bop in case you can't recognize her. We also carved a spooky spider pumpkin on Tuesday Night.
